Title
Geometry and Function Theory in Several Complex Variables
There is a deep interplay between geometry and holomorphic function theory on domains in $\mathbb{C}^n$, $n>1$, which is quite unlike the situation in $\mathbb{C}$. This leads to striking new phenomena in higher dimensions that are absent in the one dimensional setting. We will begin by exploring classical results of this nature - Hartogs extension phenomenon and biholomorphic inequivalence of the ball and polydisc. We will then proceed to discuss more recent results concerning the tangential Lipschitz gain of holomorphic functions and a smoothing property of the Bergman projection.
