Introduction of Research

The main theme of my research is complex surfaces and their boundary contact structures. Stein surfaces and their strongly pseudoconvex boundaries are the most typical examples. Especially, I am interested in the Milnor fiber and the link of a complex hypersurface singularity, called a cusp singularity, and studying them based on the knowledge of differential topology, contact geometry and symplectic geometry. I am also interested in non-Kahler complex surfaces and complex surfaces with strongly pseudoconcave boundaries, and constructed complex structures on the 4-dimensional Euclidean space which have both properties, based on the knowledge of 4-dimensional topology.

Self Introduction

I have worked on problems of contact geometry and complex geometry based on the knowledge of topology. Before coming to Sapporo, I have lived in Tokyo for 30 years, in Kyoto for 4 years. I have impression that Sapporo is a relatively new city and has various possibilities for the future.
