A soft Oka principle for proper holomorphic embeddings of open Riemann surfaces into $({\mathbb{C}}^{\ast }{)}^2$

Tyson Ritter

Let $X$ be an open Riemann surface. We prove an Oka property on the approximation and interpolation of continuous maps $X\to ({\mathbb{C}}^{\ast }{)}^2$ by proper holomorphic embeddings, pr…
