Local rings of holomorphic germs #
A germ of a holomorphic function is invertible exactly when its value at the base point
is nonzero. Consequently the stalks of the holomorphic structure sheaf are local rings,
their maximal ideals consist of the germs vanishing at the base point, and their residue
fields are canonically ℂ via evaluation. These are the local algebra needed for local
equations of divisors and their invertible sheaves on complex curves.
The results hold for any complex model with corners; compactness, connectedness, and a manifold regularity assumption are unnecessary.
The unit criterion adapts Heather Macbeth's smoothSheafCommRing.isUnit_stalk_iff in
Mathlib/Geometry/Manifold/Sheaf/LocallyRingedSpace.lean to the analytic structure sheaf.
