We will cover the basics of several complex variables in 4 lectures: Basic properties of holomorphic functions in several variables, the notion of pseudoconvexity, CR functions and CR geometry, and the $\bar\partial$-problem. The main…
An $n$-dimensional Hartogs domain $D_F$ with strongly pseudoconvex boundary can be equipped with a natural Kaehler metric $g_F$. This paper contains two results. In the first one we prove that if $g_F$ is an extremal Kaehler metric then…
The symmetrized bidisc \[ G \stackrel{\rm{def}}{=}\{(z+w,zw):|z|<1,\ |w|<1\} \] has interesting geometric properties. While it has a plentiful supply of complex geodesics and of automorphisms, there is nevertheless a unique complex geodesic…
It is known that the dynamics of $f$ and $g$ vary to a large extent from that of its composite entire functions. Using Approximation theory of entire functions, we have shown the existence of entire functions $f$ and $g$ having infinite…
Motivated by a result on weak Markov dilations, we define a notion of characteristic function for ergodic and coisometric row contractions with a one-dimensional invariant subspace for the adjoints. This extends a definition given by G.…
Let $D_F = \{(z_0, z) \in {\C}^{n} | |z_0|^2 < b, \|z\|^2 < F(|z_0|^2) \}$ be a strongly pseudoconvex Hartogs domain endowed with the \K metric $g_F$ associated to the \K form $\omega_F = -\frac{i}{2} \partial \bar{\partial} \log…
The paper proposes a vector generalization of the basic concepts of the theory of complex variable: the concept of modulus and argument of complex number. The author introduces some generalizations of the notion of holomorphic functions and…
We extend the polydisk theorem of [21], originally established for classical Cartan-Hartogs domains, to Hartogs domains over arbitrary (possibly reducible and exceptional) bounded symmetric domains. We further establish a dual counterpart…
We first show that for a bounded pseudoconvex domain with a manifold quotient of finite-volume in the sense of Kahler-Einstein measure, the identity component of the automorphism group of this domain is semi-simple without compact factors.…
We survey some results on non-uniform hyperbolicity, geometric pressure and equilibrium states in one-dimensional real and complex dynamics. We present some relations with Hausdorff dimension and measures with refined gauge functions of…
We study the regularity of the distance function to the boundary of a domain in $\mathbb{R}^2$, with respect to some asymmetric norms. We allow the boundary of the domain to have corners. We obtain an explicit formula for the second…
We characterize all algebraic subsets of the tridisk that are Caratheodory sets, that is the intrinsic Caratheodory metric on the set equals the Caratheodory metric for the tridisk. We show that such sets are either retracts, or are…
Let $\Omega\Subset\mathbb{C}^{n}$ be a domain with smooth boundary, $k\in\mathbb{N}$. It is shown that the integral of a holomorphic function in $L^1(\Omega)$ may be represented as the integral of this function against a smooth function…
Let G/K be an irreducible Hermitian symmetric space and let D be a K-invariant domain in G/K. In this paper we characterize several classes of K-invariant plurisubharmonic functions on D in terms of their restrictions to a slice…
It is a classical theorem that if a function is integrable along the boundary of the unit circle, then the function is the nontangential limit of a holomorphic function on the open disc if and only if its Fourier coefficients for…
For a domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$, we introduce the concept of a uniformly $C^m$ defining function. We characterize uniformly $C^m$ defining functions in terms of the signed distance function for the boundary and provide a large class…
The ${\mathcal D}$-pseudo-boson formalism is illustrated with two examples. The first one involves deformed complex Hermite polynomials built using finite-dimensional irreducible representations of the group ${\rm GL}(2,{\mathbb C})$ of…
We study in detail the one-variable local theory of functions holomorphic over a finite-dimensional commutative associative unital $\mathbb{C}$-algebra $\mathcal{A}$, showing that it shares a multitude of features with the classical…
We show in this paper that every domain in a separable Hilbert space, say $\cH$, which has a $C^2$ smooth strongly pseudoconvex boundary point at which an automorphism orbit accumulates is biholomorphic to the unit ball of $\cH$. This is…
We give a complete characterization of all real-valued functions on the unit circle $S^1$ that can be represented by integrating the spherical distance on $S^1$ with respect to a signed measure or a probability measure.
