Abstract/Contents

Abstract
In [Seg79], Graeme Segal proved that the space of holomorphic maps from a Riemann surface to a complex projective space is homology equivalent to the corresponding continuous mapping space through a range of dimensions increasing with degree. I will address if a similar result holds when other almost complex structures are put on projective space. For any compatible almost complex structure J on CP^2, I prove that the inclusion map from the space of J-holomorphic maps to the space of continuous maps induces a homology surjection through a range of dimensions tending to infinity with degree. The proof involves comparing the scanning map of topological chiral homology ([Sal01], [Lur09], [And10]) with gluing of J-holomorphic curves ([MS94], [Sik03]).
