I'm considering merge the domain of holomorphy into Several complex variables, but the domain of holomorphy (theory) may be the title of this page
The reason for branching into several complex variables from the trunk of complex analysis is that, unlike the case of one variable, the boundaries of all domains do not always become natural boundaries. I think the purpose of this page is to explain the mathematical elements that have become the elements that branch off from the trunk of complex analysis into several complex variables. This mathematical element seems to be called the domain of holomorphy, and since holomorphically convex and local Levi property etc. are conditions that make it a domain of holomorphy (And the theory of sheaf seems to be used to elucidate this condition. ), it seemed like we could read the domain of holomorphy as the theory that led to the branching of several complex variables from the trunk complex analysis. However, on the contrary, it seems good to rename the title of this page to the domain of holomorphy (theory). The lack of a page called several complex variables in EOM makes me think about this. The title of the textbook uses several complex variables, so my idea may be off the mark. thanks!--SilverMatsu (talk) 05:33, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I forgot to say it. Redirecting to the title of this page instead of section redirecting to the domain of holomorphy is also a suggestion choice.--SilverMatsu (talk) 05:39, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think I agree with the assertion that several complex variables is distinct from complex analysis in one variable only in the sense that it is the study of domains of holomorphy/Stein manifolds. The interesting phenomena that occur in several complex variables are fundamentally important to the study of compact complex manifolds and projective complex varieties for example, and has a different flavour to complex analytic geometry in or on Stein manifolds, which is what the current lead gives most of its weight to.
I don't think it is standard anywhere to refer to the theory of complex functions of several variables as "domains of holomorphy theory" so Wikipedia should definitely avoid presenting that as the main name of the subject. As you point out however, people do refer to "several complex variables" and that is the title of the main book on the subject, so that is surely the better name for the article. I think we probably agree that the area is different enough in flavour to complex analysis of a single variable that it deserves its own article. I wouldn't be opposed to merging with complex analysis, which is quite a thin article, but I don't think there is any particular need to. In particular I think complex analysis of a single variable gets a very different (and much broader) treatment pedagogically, and that is an article looked at frequently by people who are not pure mathematicians interested in several complex variables (engineers, physicists) and presenting all the definitions on that page in their largest generality would serve more to obfuscate the point rather than elucidate it for most visitors. Just my two cents. Thank you for improving the articles in complex analysis! Tazerenix (talk) 05:53, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much for teaching me. Thanks for giving me many interesting examples of other manifolds. Sure, it seems too narrow, so I turn the suggestion into a section redirect to the domain of holomorphism. Then, I will modify the lead sentence and correct it to say, "One of the reasons why this field has come to be studied is that the boundary does not become a natural boundary." thanks!--SilverMatsu (talk) 08:01, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Withdraw from merge the domain of holomorphy. I might suggest merging conditions that are equivalent to the domain of holomorphy, but I thought that should be considered on the domain of holomorphy. Writing the domain of holomorphy on this page has no effect on withdrawal. thanks!--SilverMatsu (talk) 13:53, 26 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
