Mergelyan approximation theorem for holomorphic Legendrian curves (2001.04379v4)

Published 13 Jan 2020 in math.CV and math.CA

Abstract: In this paper, we prove a Mergelyan type approximation theorem for immersed holomorphic Legendrian curves in an arbitrary complex contact manifold $(X,\xi)$. Explicitly, we show that if $S$ is a compact admissible set in a Riemann surface $M$ and $f:S\to X$ is a $\xi$-Legendrian immersion of class $\mathscr{C}{r+2}(S,X)$ for some $r\ge 2$ which is holomorphic in the interior of $S$, then $f$ can be approximated in the $\mathscr{C}r(S,X)$ topology by holomorphic Legendrian embeddings from open neighbourhoods of $S$ into $X$. This result has numerous applications, some of which are indicated in the paper. In particular, by using Bryant's correspondence for the Penrose twistor map $\mathbb{CP}3\to S4$ we show that a Mergelyan approximation theorem and the Calabi-Yau property hold for superminimal surfaces in the $4$-sphere $S4$.
