Abstract
For each alpha in (0,1), we construct a manifold with an alpha-Holder continuous almost complex structure, such that the Kobayashi-Royden pseudonorm is not upper semicontinuous. This generalizes an example due to Ivashkovich, Pinchuk, and Rosay, with alpha = 1/2. The main idea in the construction is an analysis of complex valued functions f on the unit disk satisfying df/dzbar=|f|^alpha.
