Abstract

These notes were written by Camilla Horst on the basis of the lectures I gave during the week of June 22–26, 1981 at the DMV Seminar on Complex Differential Geometry in Düsseldorf. My aim was to make the contents of my survey lecture at the DMV annual meeting in 1980 (published in Jahresberichte, 1981) accessible to beginning research students by providing a little more details. I suggest therefore that the Jahresberichte paper be read as an introduction to these notes.
