Let $S$ be a compact differential manifold, and let $M_S$, resp. $M'_S$ stand for the complex manifold of maps $S\to M$, resp. $S\to M'$, of some specified regularity, that are homotopic to constant. We prove that any holomorphic function on $M'_S$ continues analytically to $M_S$ (perhaps as a multivalued function).24 pagesComplex Variables32D, 32E10, 46G20, 58B12, 58D15text
