In section 1, we show that if $X$ is a Stein normal complex space of dimension n and $D\subset \subset X$ an open subset which is the union of an increasing sequence $D_{1}\subset D_{2}\subset ...\subset D_{n}\subset >...$ of domains of…

In this article, we prove that if $X$ is a Stein space and $\Omega\subset X$ an increasing sequence of $q$-complete open subsets, then $\Omega$ is $q$-complete.

Levi-Civita spacetimes have both classical and quantum singularities. The relationship between the two is used here to study and clarify the physical aspects of the enigmatic Levi-Civita spacetimes.

In this short note, we collect some results regarding the Remmert reduction of holomorphically convex space and its application to a variation of the usual union problem. Classically, the union problem asks the following question: is a…

We present a list of open questions in the theory of holomorphic foliations, possibly with singularities. Some problems have been around for a while, others are very accessible.

We discuss domains of holomorphy and several notions of pseudoconvexity (drawing parallels with the corresponding notions from geometric convexity), and present a mostly self-contained solution to the Levi problem. We restrict our attention…

Let U be a pseudoconvex open set in a complex manifold M. When is U a Stein manifold? There are classical counter examples due to Grauert, even when U has real-analytic boundary or has strictly pseudoconvex points. We give new criteria for…

We attempt to survey recent results and open problems connected to Lieb-Thirring inequalities.

We review classical methods to solve the Levi problem in the presence of symmetries, established by Hirschowitz and by Grauert-Remmert-Ueda. We then illustrate these methods by solving the Levi problem in some new situations, namely…

We introduce the notion of soficity for locally compact groups and list a number of open problems.

In this paper some open problems for Painlev\'e equations are discussed. In particular the following open problems are described: (i) the Painlev\'e equivalence problem; (ii) notation for solutions of the Painlev\'e equations; (iii)…

Rigorous results on solutions of the Einstein-Vlasov system are surveyed. After an introduction to this system of equations and the reasons for studying it, a general discussion of various classes of solutions is given. The emphasis is on…

A Stokes-type problem for a viscoelastic model of salt rocks is considered, and existence, uniqueness and regularity are investigated in the scale of $L^2$-based Sobolev spaces. The system is transformed into a generalized Stokes problem,…

The paper contains a discussion on a number of open problems in queueing theory. Some of them are known for decades, some are more recent. They relate to stability and to rare events. There is an idea to prepare a special issue of QUESTA on…

We show that if $X$ is a Stein space and, if $\Omega \subset X$ is exhaustable by a sequence $\Omega_1 \subset \Omega_2 \subset \ldots \subset \Omega_n \subset \ldots$ of open Stein subsets of $X$, then $\Omega$ is Stein. This generalizes a…

The Liouville problem for the stationary Navier-Stokes equations on the whole space is a challenging open problem who has know several recent contributions. We prove here some Liouville type theorems for these equations provided the…

We introduce the embedded Nash problem allowing singularities in the ambient space, and solve it in the case of surfaces, generalizing \cite[Theorem 1.22]{BdlB}.

This article is a guide to the literature on existence theorems for the Einstein equations which also draws attention to open problems in the field. The local in time Cauchy problem, which is relatively well understood, is treated first.…

I survey problems concerning Lindelof spaces which have partial set- theoretic solutions.

We formulate a Stefan problem on an evolving hypersurface and study the well-posedness of weak solutions given $L^1$ data. To do this, we first develop function spaces and results to handle equations on evolving surfaces in order to give a…
