Kähler maps of Hermitian symmetric spaces into complex space forms (Q2642384)

The authors study Kähler immersions of Hermitian symmetric spaces into finite- or infinite-dimensional complex space forms, in particular Kähler immersions of such spaces of noncompact type endowed with their Bergman metrics into the infinite-dimensional hyperbolic space \(\mathbb{C} H^\infty\) or the infinite-dimensional Euclidean space \(\ell^2(\mathbb{C})\). Inspired by Calabi, they show: among all Hermitian symmetric spaces of noncompact type, the products of hyperbolic spaces are the only ones which admit Kähler immersions into \(\mathbb{C} H^\infty\) or \(\ell^2(\mathbb{C})\). This, together with known results, leads to a description of those Hermitian symmetric spaces which admit a Kähler immersion into a given complex space form.
