It is proved that quadrature domains are ubiquitous in a very strong sense in the realm of smoothly bounded multiply connected domains in the plane. In fact, they are so dense that one might as well assume that any given smooth domain one is dealing with is a quadrature domain, and this allows access to a host of strong conditions on the classical kernel functions associated to the domain. Following this string of ideas leads to the discovery that the Bergman kernel can be “zipped” down to a strikingly small data set.

Let$X$be a smooth$n$-dimensional projective variety embedded in some projective space ℙ^{$N$}over the field ℂ of the complex numbers. Associated with the general projection of$X$to a space ℙ^{$N$-$m$}($N$-$m$>$n$+1) one defines an extended Gauss map $\overline{\gamma}\colon\overline{X}\rightarrow\text{Gr}(n;N-m)$ (in case$N$-$m$>2$n$-1 this is the Gauss map of the image of$X$under the projection). We prove that $\overline{X}$ is smooth. In case any two different points of$X$do have disjoint tangent spaces then we prove that $\overline{\gamma}$ is injective.
