Deformation of Brody curves and mean dimension. (English) Zbl 1186.32002
A holomorphic curve $$f:{\mathbb C}\to {\mathbb C}\mathbb{P}^N$$ is called a Brody curve if its pointwise norm (with respect to the Fubini-Study metric) satisfies the inequality $$|df|\leq 1$$. Let $${\mathcal M}({\mathbb C}\mathbb{P}^N)$$ be the space of Brody curves with the compact-open topology. The author studies the “mean dimension” $$\text{dim}({\mathcal M}({\mathbb C}\mathbb{P}^N):{\mathbb C})$$ and estimates it from above and below in terms of the so-called “mean energy.” For that purpose, a new deformation theory of Brody curves is developed.
