Welcome!
This course will be an introduction to definable complex analytic spaces, which are spaces locally modeled on zero sets of complex analytic functions which are definable in a fixed o-minimal structure. There will be roughly three parts:
First we will develop the basic theory of definable complex analytic spaces, which will run parallel to that of algebraic schemes and complex analytic spaces except that a very mild Grothendieck topology must be used in the sheaf theory. Thus, this part of the course will serve both as a refresher for these geometries as well as a template for more nuanced ones, such as algebraic spaces and rigid analytic spaces.
We will then discuss algebraization theorems, culminating in the definable GAGA theorem.
Finally, we will detail applications to flat vector bundles, Hodge theory, and transcendence theory.
