Negative Kähler curvature without bounded holomorphic coordinates

Constructs a contractible domain in ℂ3 with a complete negatively pinched Kähler metric but no bounded holomorphic coordinates, disproving bounded-domain uniformization in this setting. A higher-dimensional example has sectional curvature at most −1 and only constant bounded holomorphic functions; its curvature is not bounded below.
