    We prove that on any (almost) Kähler manifold \((M,\omega,J)\) and for any given compact Lagrangian submanifold \(L\subset(M,\omega)\), there exists a dense subset \(({\mathcal D}^L_\omega(M))_{\text{reg}}\) of \({\mathcal D}_\omega(M)\) such that if \(\phi\in({\mathcal D}^L_\omega(M))_{\text{reg}}\), any (not multiply-covered) holomorphic disc with boundary on \(\phi(L)\) in Fredholm-regular. Here, \({\mathcal D}_\omega(M)\) is the set of Hamiltonian (or exact) diffeomorphisms on \((M,\omega)\). Using this and Gromov's existence scheme, refined by Polterovich, of pseudo-holomorphic discs on \(\mathbb{C}^n\), we prove that for any given compact Lagrangian submanifold \(L\subset\mathbb{C}^n\) and for \(\phi\in({\mathcal D}^L_\omega(\mathbb{C}^n))_{\text{reg}}\), there exists a Fredholm-regular holomorphic (not just \(J\)-holomorphic for some \(J\)!) disc with respect to the standard complex structure on \(\mathbb{C}^n\), \(w:(D^2,\partial D^2)\to(\mathbb{C}^n,\phi(L))\) such that its Maslov index \(\mu_{\phi(L)}(w)\) satisfies \(3-n\leq \mu_{\phi(L)}(w)\leq n+1\). This is a purely complex analytic analogue of a result by Polterovich. We prove similar results under the perturbation by Lagrangian isotopies. Finally, we also develop a Fredholm theory and prove a similar perturbation result for holomorphic discs with totally real boundary conditions in an (almost) complex manifold \((M,J)\).
