1. Proper holomorphic maps in Euclidean spaces avoiding unbounded convex setsBarbara Drinovec-Drnovšek, Franc Forstnerič, 2023, original scientific article Abstract: We show that if $E$ is a closed convex set in $\mathbb C^n$, $n>1$ contained in a closed halfspace $H$ such that ▫$E\cap bH$▫ is nonempty and bounded, then the concave domain $\Omega=\mathbb C^n\setminus E$ contains images of proper holomorphicmaps $f : X \to \mathbb C^n$ from any Stein manifold $X$ of dimension $< n$, with approximation of a givenmap on closed compact subsets of $X$. If in addition $2 {\rm dim} X+1 \le n$ then $f$ can be chosen an embedding, and if $2 {\rm dim} X = n$, then it can be chosen an immersion. Under a stronger condition on $E$, we also obtain the interpolation property for such maps on closed complex subvarieties.

2. Recent developments on Oka manifoldsFranc Forstnerič, 2023, review article Abstract: In this paper we present the main developments in Oka theory since the publication of my book "Stein Manifolds and Holomorphic Mappings (The Homotopy Principle in Complex Analysis)", 2nd ed., Springer, 2017. We also give several new results, examples and constructions of Oka domains in Euclidean and projective spaces. Furthermore, we show that for $n > 1$ the fibre $\mathbb C^n$ in a Stein family can degenerate to a non-Oka fibre, thereby answering a question of Takeo Ohsawa. Several open problems are discussed.

3. Oka domains in Euclidean spacesFranc Forstnerič, Erlend Fornæss Wold, 2024, original scientific article Abstract: In this paper, we find surprisingly small Oka domains in Euclidean spaces $\mathbb C^n$ of dimension $n>1$ at the very limit of what is possible. Under a mild geometric assumption on a closed unbounded convex set $E$ in $\mathbb C^n$, we show that $\mathbb C^n\setminus E$ is an Oka domain. In particular, there are Oka domains only slightly bigger than a halfspace, the latter being neither Oka nor hyperbolic. This gives smooth families of real hypersurfaces $\Sigma_t \subset \mathbb C^n$ for $t \in \mathbb R$ dividing $\mathbb C^n$ in an unbounded hyperbolic domain and an Oka domain such that at $t=0$, $\Sigma_0$ is a hyperplane and the character of the two sides gets reversed. More generally, we show that if $E$ is a closed set in $\mathbb C^n$ for $n>1$ whose projective closure $\overline E \subset \mathbb{CP}^n$ avoids a hyperplane $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{CP}^n$ and is polynomially convex in $\mathbb{CP}^n\setminus \Lambda\cong\mathbb C^n$, then $\mathbb C^n\setminus E$ is an Oka domain.
