Kernel convergence and biholomorphic mappings in several complex variables

We deal with kernel convergence of domains in ℂn which are biholomorphically equivalent to the unit ball B. We also prove that there is an equivalence between the convergence on compact sets of biholomorphic mappings on B, which satisfy a growth theorem, and the kernel convergence. Moreover, we obtain certain consequences of this equivalence in the study of Loewner chains and of starlike and convex mappings on B.
