Let H(U) [resp. H(K)] be the set of holomorphic functions on the open set U of E [resp. the set of germs of holomorphic functions on the compact set K of E]. Let π∗ be the mapping induced by π from H(π(U)) [resp. H(π(K))] into H(U) [resp. H(K)]. π∗ is always continuous for the natural topologies; the aim of the paper is to give a survey of the results concerning when π∗ is, or is not, an embedding. %~
