This volume presents the proceedings of a conference on Several Complex Variables, PDE s, Geometry, and their interactions held in 2008 at the University of Fribourg, Switzerland, in honor of Linda Rothschild.

Articles are written in a comprehensive and accessible style by leading experts in the field Emphasis on interactions of complex analysis with PDE theory and geometry Includes most recent developments in the field of analysis in several complex variables Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

Klappentext
This is a reference book for academics working in the fields of several complex variables, PDE theory and geometry. The book collects articles on most recent developments in these fields with special emphasis on interactions between them. It includes introductory and expository presentations of the relevant tools, techniques and objects for graduate and PhD students with a corresponding specialization. The volume comprises contributions of leading experts in the field written in a comprehensive and accessible style. Contributors: D. Barlet, S. Berhanu, A. Bove, D.W. Catlin, J.P. D'Angelo, M.
