R-circles in general three dimensional CR manifolds (of contact type) are the analogues to traces of Lagrangian totally geodesic planes on the sphere viewed as the boundary of two dimensional complex hyperbolic space. They form a family of…

Every holomorphic effective parabolic or reductive geometry on a domain over a Stein manifold extends uniquely to the envelope of holomorphy of the domain. This result completes the open problems of my earlier paper on extension of…

We study rational cuspidal curves in Hirzebruch surfaces. We provide two obstructions for the existence of rational cuspidal curves in Hirzebruch surfaces with prescribed types of singular points. The first result comes from Heegaard--Floer…

This article shows that for generic choice of Riemannian metric on a smooth manifold $M$ of dimension four, all prime compact parametrized minimal surfaces within $M$ have self-intersections in general position in the following sense:…

Shape(-and-scale) spaces - configuration spaces for generalized Kendall-type Shape(-and-Scale) Theories - are usually not manifolds but stratified manifolds. While in Kendall's own case - similarity shapes - the shape spaces are…

We classify all closed, aspherical Riemannian manifolds M whose universal cover has indiscrete isometry group. One sample application is the theorem that any such M with word-hyperbolic fundamental group must be isometric to a negatively…

We consider perturbations of CR structures which preserve the complex tangent bundle. For a compact generic CR manifold its concavity properties and hence the finiteness of some $\overline\partial_b$-cohomology groups are also preserved by…

On a compact strictly pseudoconvex CR manifold $(M,\th)$, we consider the CR Yamabe constant of its infinite conformal covering. By using the maximum principles, we then prove a uniqueness theorem for the CR Yamabe flow on a complete…

The main purpose of this paper is to introduce a new smooth version of a CW complex named a fat CW complex, and to show that it includes all closed manifolds, because existing smooth versions of CW complexes (e.g. [Iwa22]) do not have such…

Each Gr-functor of the type $(\varphi,f)$ of a Gr-category of the type $(\Pi,\C)$ has the obstruction be an element $\overline{k}\in H^3(\Pi,\C).$ When this obstruction vanishes, there exists a bijection between congruence classes of…

Let $X$ be a cubic surface over a global field $k$. We prove that a Brauer-Manin obstruction to the existence of $k$-points on $X$ will persist over every extension $L/k$ with degree relatively prime to $3$. In other words, a cubic surface…

We consider a smooth CR mapping $f$ from a real-analytic generic submanifold $M$ in $\bC^N$ into $\bC^N$. For $M$ of finite type and essentially finite at a point $p\in M$, and $f$ formally finite at $p$, we give a necessary and sufficient…

We prove necessary and sufficient conditions for a smooth surface in a 4-manifold X to be pseudoholomorphic with respect to some almost complex structure on X. This provides a systematic approach to the construction of pseudoholomorphic…

We establish inequalities for the eigenvalues of the sub-Laplace operator associated with a pseudo-Hermitian structure on a strictly pseudoconvex CR manifold. Our inequalities extend those obtained by Niu and Zhang \cite{NiuZhang} for the…

We characterize convex cocompact subgroups of mapping class groups that arise as subgroups of specially embedded right-angled Artin groups. That is, if the right-angled Artin group G in Mod(S) satisfies certain conditions that imply G is…

Q-prime curvature, which was introduced by J. Case and P. Yang, is a local invariant of pseudo-hermitian structure on CR manifolds that can be defined only when the Q-curvature vanishes identically. It is considered as a secondary invariant…

We show that complex symplectic structures need not be preserved under small deformations, and we find sufficient conditions for this to happen. We study various cohomologies of compact complex symplectic manifolds, obtaining some…

We prove that for every smooth prime Fano $3$-fold $V$, the Hilbert scheme $\operatorname{Hilb}^{sc} V$ of smooth connected curves on $V$ contains a generically non-reduced irreducible component of Mumford type. We also study the…

This paper uses algebro-topological techniques such as characteristic classes and obstruction theory, together with the $h$-principles for $\widetilde{\mathrm{G}}_2$ and $\mathrm{SL}(3;\mathbb{R})^2$ forms recently established by the author…

We prove the compactness of the set of solutions to the CR Yamabe problem on a compact strictly pseudoconvex CR manifold of dimension three whose blow-up manifolds at every point have positive p-mass. As a corollary we deduce that…
