On the local univalence of nondegenerate holomorphic vector fields (Q2213079): Difference between revisions

Holomorphic vector fields on complex manifolds that do not present multivaluedness, respect to the complex time in their solutions, are called univalent or semicomplete; according to [\textit{R. S. Palais}, Mem. Am. Math. Soc. 22, 123 p. (1957; Zbl 0178.26502)] or [\textit{J. C. Rebelo}, Ann. Inst. Fourier 46, 411--428 (1996; Zbl 0853.34002)], respectively. The author proves that, in all dimensions, germs of nondegenerate holomorphic vector fields on complex manifolds are univalent or semicomplete. This is, that there exist neighborhoods of their singular points where all their solutions are single-valued. This implies that, in stark contrast with the degenerate case, all germs of nondegenerate holomorphic vector fields give local models for complete holomorphic vector fields on complex manifolds (albeit possibly non-Hausdorff ones).
