Oka-1 manifolds
摘要
In this paper we begin a systematic study of the class of complex manifolds which are universal targets of holomorphic maps from open Riemann surfaces. We call them Oka-1 manifolds, by analogy with Oka manifolds that are universal targets of holomorphic maps from Stein manifolds of arbitrary dimension. We prove that every complex manifold which is dominable at most points by spanning tubes of complex lines in affine spaces is an Oka-1 manifold. In particular, a manifold dominable by
