Introduction. It is a classical problem to construct a complex projective space, using as ‘imaginary points’ objects of some kind from the geometry of real projective space. (The various solutions to this problem have been reviewed in a book by Coolidge ((1)).) The object of the present paper is to solve the corresponding problem for n-dimensional projective spaces over two skew fields, one being a second-rank extension of the other. The method used seems not to have been published before, even in connexion with the classical problem.

An open convex set in real projective space is called divisible if there exists a discrete group of projective automorphisms which acts cocompactly. There are many examples of such sets and a theorem of Benoist implies that many of these examples are strictly convex, have [Formula: see text] boundary, and have word hyperbolic dividing group. In this paper we study a notion of convexity in complex projective space and show that the only divisible complex convex sets with [Formula: see text] boundary are the projective balls.

AbstractLet M 2n be a closed smooth manifold homotopy equivalent to the complex projective space ℂP(n). It is known that the first Pontrjagin class p 1(M) of M 2n has the form (n+1+24α(M))u 2 for some integer α(M) where u is a generator of H 2(M; ℤ). We prove that α(M) is even when n is even but not divisible by 64.

Let CPn denote the complex projective space of complex dimension n. If k < n, CPk−1 is embedded as the (2k –1)-skeleton of CPn and we denote by , the stunted projective space, the quotient of CPn. by CPk−1.

We estimate the dimensions of the spaces of holomorphic sections of certain line bundles to give improved lower bounds on the index of complex isotropic harmonic maps to complex projective space from the sphere and torus, and in some cases from higher genus surfaces.

A graded $K$-algebra $R$ is said to be Koszul if the minimal $R$-free graded resolution of $K$ is linear. In this paper we study the Koszul property of the homogeneous coordinate ring $R$ of a set of $s$ points in the complex projective space $\boldsymbol P^n$. Kempf proved that $R$ is Koszul if $s\leq 2n$ and the points are in general linear position. If the coordinates of the points are algebraically independent over $\boldsymbol Q$, then we prove that $R$ is Koszul if and only if $s\le 1 +n + n^2/4$. If $s\le 2n$ and the points are in linear general position, then we show that there exists a system of coordinates $x_0,\dots,x_n$ of $\boldsymbol P^n$ such that all the ideals $(x_0,x_1,\dots,x_i)$ with $0\le i \le n$ have a linear $R$-free resolution.

The goal of this paper is twofold. We study holomorphic curves f:C ? C3 avoiding four complex hyperplanes and a real subspace of real dimension five in C3 where we study the cases where the projection of f into the complex projective space CP2 is constant. On the other hand, we investigate the kobayashi hyperbolicity of the complement of five perturbed lines in CP2.

In a previous paper it was shown how to associate with a Lagrangian submanifold satisfying Chen's equality in 3-dimensional complex projective space, a minimal surface in the 5-sphere with ellipse of curvature a circle. In this paper we focus on the reverse construction.
