Abstract

It is proved that a bounded $C^2$-smooth pseudoconvex domain $\Omega$ in a Kähler manifold $M$ can be mapped onto a locally closed analytic set in $\mathbb{C}^N$ holomorphically and properly with connected fibers if the canonical bundle of $M$ is negative on a neighborhood of $\partial \Omega$. A similar result is obtained for Zariski open domains in compact manifolds.
