Increasing sequences of complex manifolds with uniform squeezing constants and their Bergman spaces

John Erik Fornæss, Ratna Pal

Abstract

For $d\geq 2$, we discuss $d$-dimensional complex manifolds $M$ that are the increasing union of bounded open sets $M_n$'s of $\mathbb{C}^d$ with a common uniform squeezing constant. The description of $M$ is given in terms of the corank of the infinitesimal Kobayashi metric of $M$, which is shown to be identically constant on $M$. The main result of this article says that if $M$ has full Kobayashi corank, then $M$ can be written as an increasing union of the unit ball; if $M$ has zero Kobayashi corank, then $M$ has a bounded realization with a uniform squeezing constant; and if $M$ has an intermediate Kobayashi corank, then $M$ has a local weak vector bundle structure. The above description of $M$ is used to show that the dimension of the Bergman space of $M \subseteq \mathbb{C}^d$ is either zero or infinity. This settles Wiegerinck's conjecture for those pseudoconvex domains in higher dimensions that are increasing union of bounded domains with a common uniform squeezing constant.

Key Result

Theorem 1.5

For $d\geq 2$ and for each $n\geq 1$, let $M_n$ be biholomorphic to (possibly different) bounded open sets in $\mathbb{C}^d$ such that $M_n\subset \subset M_{n+1}$ and suppose $M=\bigcup_{n=1}^\infty M_n$. Suppose the family $\{M_n\}_{n\geq1}$ has a uniform squeezing constant, say $r>0$. Then for ea
