Abstract: The paper is a contribution to the conjecture of Kobayashi that the complement of a generic curve in the projective plane is hyperbolic, provided the degree is at least five. Previously the authors treated the cases of two quadrics and a line and three quadrics. The main results are Let C be the union of three curves in P_2 whose degrees are at least two, one of which is at least three. Then for generic such configurations the complement of C is hyperbolic and hyperbolically embedded. The same statement holds for complements of curves in generic hypersurfaces X of degree at least five and curves which are intersections of X with hypersurfaces of degree at least five. Furthermore results are shown for curves on surfaces with picard number one.

Review text

Die Arbeit erzielt einen beachtlichen Fortschritt zu der Frage, wann zweidimensionale komplexe Mannigfaltigkeiten eine hyperbolische Struktur besitzen. Die Anwort fällt positiv aus für die projektive Ebene, aus der man eine ``generische Konfiguration dreier Kurven vom Grad \(\geq 2\), eine davon vom Grad \(\geq 3\), herausnimmt. Was ``generisch heißt, läßt sich weiter präzisieren. Ein analoges Resultat erhalten die Autoren für generische glatte Hyperflächen des projektiven Raums, aus denen man drei Kurven genügend hohen Grades herausnimmt. Beweistechnisch beruhen die Resultate teilweise auf Rechnungen mit Invarianten komplexer Mannigfaltigkeiten, teilweise auf Sätzen über Werteverteilung: Es ist nur zu zeigen, daß keine nichtkonstante holomorphe Abbildung vom Grad \(\leq 2\) in die fragliche Mannigfaltigkeit existiert.
