This volume includes 28 chapters by authors who are leading researchers of the world describing many of the up-to-date aspects in the field of several complex variables (SCV). These contributions are based upon their presentations at the 10th Korean Conference on Several Complex Variables (KSCV10), held as a satellite conference to the International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) 2014 in Seoul, Korea.

SCV has been the term for multidimensional complex analysis, one of the central research areas in mathematics. Studies over time have revealed a variety of rich, intriguing, new knowledge in complex analysis and geometry of analytic spaces and holomorphic functions which were "hidden" in the case of complex dimension one. These new theories have significant intersections with algebraic geometry, differential geometry, partial differential equations, dynamics, functional analysis and operator theory, and sheaves and cohomology, as well as the traditional analysis of holomorphic functions in all dimensions.

This book is suitable for a broad audience of mathematicians at and above the beginning graduate-student level. Many chapters pose open-ended problems for further research, and one in particular is devoted to problems for future investigations.

This volume presents a collection of research papers and survey articles by participants from two significant conferences on several complex variables (SCV) held at POSTECH in 2022. SCV, a central research area in mathematics, focuses on holomorphic functions of several variables, the geometry of analytic spaces, and its intersection with fields such as differential geometry, algebraic geometry, functional analysis, and operator theory.

The first conference, The Conference on Complex Geometric Analysis, took place in January 2022 to celebrate the 65th birthday of Professor Kang-Tae Kim, a leading figure in SCV. The second, held in July 2022, was The POSTECH Conference 2022 on Complex Analytic Geometry, a joint event that included The 14th Korean Symposium of Several Complex Variables and The 28th International Conference on Finite and Infinite Dimensional Complex Analysis and Applications. Both conferences attracted over 50 prominent researchers who gave lectures on the latest developments in the field. This volume serves as a testament to their contributions and the ongoing advancements in SCV research.
