Title: Oka tubes in holomorphic line bundles
Abstract: An affirmative answer to Gromov's conjecture characterizes Oka manifolds by a certain kind of ellipticity which is the opposite of Kobayashi-Eisenman-Brody hyperbolicity. Based on the fact that the zero section of a negative line bundle on a compact hyperbolic manifold admits a basis of pseudoconvex Kobayashi hyperbolic neighborhoods, we discuss the question of when the zero section of a line bundle admits a basis of pseudoconcave Oka neighborhoods.
This talk is based on joint work with Franc Forstnerič.
