Locally Stein domains over holomorphically convex manifolds (Q952179)

Let \(\Pi : Y \to X\) be a locally Stein domain over a complex space. The conditions in which \(Y\) is Stein are given in two theorems with remarkuable consequences. First, the author proves that if \(X\) is a Stein space and there is an open neighborhood \(W\) of \(X_{\text{sing}}\) in \(X\) such that \(\Pi^{-1}(W)\) is Stein, then \(Y\) is Stein. The second result is that if \(\Pi\) is a locally Stein domain over a \(q\)-complete space \(X\) with isolated singularities, then \(Y\) is \(q\)-complete. Also, \(Y\) is Stein if \(X\) is Stein and \(\Pi\) is locally hyperconvex over any point in \(X_{\text{sing}}\).
