In this article we construct many examples of properly convex irreducible domains divided by Zariski dense relatively hyperbolic groups in every dimension at least 3. This answers a question of Benoist. Relative hyperbolicity and non-strict…

The (unbounded version of the) Lempert function $l_D$ on a domain $D\subset\Bbb C^d$ does not usually satisfy the triangle inequality, but on bounded $\mathcal C^2$-smooth strictly pseudoconvex domains, it satisfies a quasi triangle…

We consider elliptic equations and systems in divergence form with the conormal or the Robin boundary conditions, with small BMO (bounded mean oscillation) or variably partially small BMO coefficients. We propose a new class of domains…

The Hardy constant of a simply connected domain $\Omega\subset\R^2$ is the best constant for the inequality \[ \int_{\Omega}|\nabla u|^2dx \geq c\int_{\Omega} \frac{u^2}{{\rm dist}(x,\partial\Omega)^2}\, dx \;, u\in C^{\infty}_c(\Omega). \]…

The orthogonal decomposition of the Webster curvature provides us a way to characterize some canonical metrics on a pseudo-Hermitian manifold. We derive some subelliptic differential inequalities from the Weitzenb\"ock formulas for the…

We construct a strictly pseudoconvex domain with smooth boundary whose squeezing function is not plurisubharmonic.

The aim of this paper is to present some properties of reduced spherical convex bodies on the two-dimensional sphere $S^2$. The intersection of two different non-opposite hemispheres is called a lune. By its thickness we mean the distance…

We prove that a trace inequality holds for John domains $\Omega$ satisfying $$ \mathcal H^{n-1}(\partial \Omega\setminus \partial_*\Omega)=0,$$ where $\partial_*\Omega$ denotes the measure-theoretic boundary, together with an upper density…

A pseudo-cone in ${\mathbb R}^n$ is a nonempty closed convex set $K$ not containing the origin and such that $\lambda K \subseteq K$ for all $\lambda\ge 1$. It is called a $C$-pseudo-cone if $C$ is its recession cone, where $C$ is a pointed…

We consider planar curved strictly convex domains with no or very weak smoothness assumptions and prove sharp bounds for square-functions associated to the lattice point discrepancy.

We introduce the notion of domains with uniform squeezing property, study various analytic and geometric properties of such domains and show that they cover many interesting examples, including Teichmuller spaces and Hermitian symmetric…

An open set in C^n is pseudoconvex if and only if its intersection with every affine subspace of complex dimension two as seen as an open set in C^2 is pseudoconvex.

We develop a new boundary condition for the weak inverse mean curvature flow, which gives canonical and non-trivial solutions in bounded domains. Roughly speaking, the boundary of the domain serves as an outer obstacle, and the evolving…

We prove regularity of solutions of the $\bar\partial$-problem in the H\"older-Zygmund spaces of bounded, strongly $\mathbf C$-linearly convex domains of class $C^{1,1}$. The proofs rely on a new, analytic characterization of said domains…

We consider shape functionals of the form $F_q(\Omega)=P(\Omega)T^q(\Omega)$ on the class of open sets of prescribed Lebesgue measure. Here $q>0$ is fixed, $P(\Omega)$ denotes the perimeter of $\Omega$ and $T(\Omega)$ is the torsional…

We give a partial negative answer to a question left open in a previous work by Brasco and the first and third-named authors concerning the sharp constant in the fractional Hardy inequality on convex sets. Our approach has a geometrical…

We show that two smoothly bounded, strongly pseudoconvex domains which are diffeomorphic may be smoothly deformed into each other, with all intermediate domains being strongly pseudoconvex. This result relates to Lempert's ideas about…

Motivated by construction in Algebraic Quantum Field Theory we introduce wedge domains in compactly causal symmetric spaces M=G/H, which includes in particular anti de Sitter space in all dimensions and its coverings. Our wedge domains…

In this note we show that a connected, closed and locally convex subset (with an extra assumption on the diameter with respect to the induced length metric if $\kappa>0$) of a $CAT(\kappa)$ space is convex.

Polyhedral-type approximations of convex-like domains in $\mathbb{C}^d$ have been considered recently by the second author. In particular, the decay rate of the error in optimal volume approximation as a function of the number of facets has…
