In their article, "Continuity of the Spectrum of a Field of Self-Adjoint Operators", Beckus and Bellissard discuss the following problem: Given a family of bounded, self-adjoint linear operators indexed by a parameter t ...

In this thesis, we shall apply methods developed by Bertrand Deroin to solve the tangential Cauchy-Riemann equations on positive line bundles over compact hyperbolic Riemann surface laminations. In particular, we shall ...
