Hermitian vector bundles and the equidistribution of the zeroes of their holomorphic sections
Open accessAbstract
At present a great deal is known about the value distribution of systems of meromorphic functions on an open Riemann surface. One has the beautiful results of Picard, E. Borel, Nevanlinna, Ahlfors, H. and J. Weyl and many others to point to. (See [1], [2].) The aim of this paper is to make the initial step towards an n-dimensional analogue of this theory. A natural general setting for the value distribution theory is the following one. We consider a complex n-manifold X and a holomorphic vector bundle E over X whose fiber dimension equals the dimension of X and wish to study the zero-sets of holomorphic sections of E. When X is compact (and without boundary) then it is well-known that if the zeroes of any continuous section are counted properly then the algebraic sum of these zero-points is independent of the section and is given by the integral of the nth Chern(2) class of E over X: Thus we have zeroes of s = | cn(E), (1.1) Number of J x

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
