In this paper, we discuss two consequences of this result. The first one strengthens the curvature inequality for operators in the Cowen-Douglas class B1(?) while the second one gives a relationship of the reproducing kernel of a submodule of certain Hilbert modules with the curvature of the associated quotient module.en-USGaussian curvatureCowen-Douglas operatorSesqui-analytic scalarHilbert modulese-Print123456789/555
