On the Existence of a Global Neighbourhood
arXiv:1411.3092 · doi:10.1017/S0017089515000427
Abstract
Suppose that a complex manifold M is locally embedded into a higher-dimensional neighbourhood as a submanifold. We show that, if the local neighbourhood germs are compatible in a suitable sense, then they glue together to give a global neighbourhood of M. As an application, we prove a global version of Hertling--Manin's unfolding theorem for germs of TEP structures; this has applications in the study of quantum cohomology.
