Is there a divisor in $\mathbb P^2$ such that all analytic maps into its complement algebraize?

Is there a closed subscheme $D$ in $\mathbb P^2_{\mathbb C}$ pure of codimension one such that, for all algebraic varieties $X$ over $\mathbb C$, any analytic map $$ \phi: X(\mathbb C) \to \mathbb P^...

Easiest proof for showing finite etale (analytic) quotients of algebraic varieties are algebraic

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety over $\mathbb C$. Let $X^{an}\to Y$ be a finite etale morphism with $Y$ a complex analytic space. I read somewhere that $Y$ algebraizes, ie, $Y=V^{an}$ for some ...

Simple maps: Flat versus locally trivial

In deformation of complex analytic spaces, one usually considers an analytic proper simple surjective map $\varpi: \mathscr{M} \twoheadrightarrow \mathscr{P}$ as an analytic family. However the term ...

Does constructible and analytically open imply Zariski open

Let $U$ be a constructible subset of a complex algebraic variety. Is the following statement true? If $U$ is open in the analytic topology, then $U$ is open in the Zariski topology on $X$.

Conformal mappings that preserve angles and areas but not perimeters?

Conformal mappings from $U$ to $V$, both subsets of $\mathbb{C}$, locally preserve angles. But, in general, such mappings neither preserve areas nor preserve perimeters. Q. Are there examples of ...

Pullback of coherent sheaves on Stein manifolds

Let $i:X\to Y$ be a closed embedding of Stein spaces, $G$ be a coherent $O_Y$-module. Set $I=\ker(i^*:O(Y)\to O(X))$. Then $I$ is an ideal of the ring $O(Y)$. Is that true that $\Gamma(X,i^*G)=G(Y)/...
