Let C be convex, compact, with nonempty interior and h be Legendre with domain C, continuous on C. We prove that h is Bregman if and only if it is strictly convex on C and C is a polytope. This provides insights on sequential convergence of…

We study and generalize a classical theorem of L. Bers that classifies domains up to biholomorphic equivalence in terms of the algebras of holomorphic functions on those domains. Then we develop applications of these results to the study of…

The Hopf Lemma for second order elliptic operators is proved to hold in domains with $C^{1,\alpha}$, and even less regular, boundaries. It need not hold for $C^1$ boundaries. Corresponding results are proved for second order parabolic…

For a convex domain $D$ that is enclosed by the hypersurface $\partial D$ of bounded normal curvature, we prove an angle comparison theorem for angles between $\partial D$ and geodesic rays starting from some fixed point in $D$, and the…

We give a formula for the Carath\'eodory distance on the Neil parabola, the variety ${z^2=w^3}$ restricted to the bidisk; thus making it the first variety with a singularity to have its Carath\'eodory distance explicitly computed. In…

Let $n \geq 3$ and $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$ with a smooth negative plurisubharmonic exhaustion function $\varphi$. As a generalization of Y. Tiba's result, we prove that any holomorphic function on a connected open…

We show that pseudoconvex Reinhardt domains in dimension two with isomorphic semigroups of holomorphic endomorphisms are biholomorphically or anti-biholomorphically equivalent. Moreover, we show that every Stein manifold that retracts to a…

We consider the convergence of pointed multiply connected domains in the Caratheodory topology. Behaviour in the limit is largely determined by the properties of the simple closed hyperbolic geodesics which separate components of the…

Consider a particle moving through a random medium, which consists of spherical obstacles, randomly distributed in R^d. The particle is accelerated by a constant external field; when colliding with an obstacle, the particle inelastically…

We define an $\operatorname{SL}_n(\mathbb{Z})$-invariant tropical zeta function of a convex domain. In dimension 2 it admits boundary Dirichlet-series representation with summands indexed by Farey pairs. For $C^3$ strictly convex domains,…

We study extremal discs for the Kobayashi metric. Inspired by work of Lempert on strongly convex domains, we present results on strongly pseudoconvex domains. We also consider a useful biholomorphic invariant, inspired by the Kobayashi (and…

It is shown that the Hilbert geometry $(D,h_D)$ associated to a bounded convex domain $D\subset \mathbb{E}^n$ is isometric to a normed vector space $(V,||\cdot ||)$ if and only if $D$ is an open $n$-simplex. One further result on the…

We prove the following for a bounded convex planar domain that is symmetric with respect to both coordinate axes. Consider a centered rectangle with sides parallel to the axes that strictly contains the domain. If the domain is not a…

We discuss no-dimensional (approximate) versions of Carath\'eodory's and Helly's theorems. Our goal is to draw attention to open problems and potential applications related to these results. We survey recent progress and pose several…

We discuss the asymmetric sandwich theorem, a generalization of the Hahn-Banach theorem. As applications, we derive various results on the existence of linear functionals that include bivariate, trivariate and quadrivariate generalizations…

Under appropriate assumptions, we show that all bounded entire solutions to a class of semilinear elliptic systems are confined in a convex domain. Moreover, we prove a Liouville type theorem in the case where the domain is strictly convex.…

The Hermite-Hadamard inequality states that the average value of a convex function on an interval is bounded from above by the average value of the function at the endpoints of the interval. We provide a generalization to higher dimensions:…

In this paper we establish Gehring-Hayman type theorems for some complex domains. Suppose that $\Omega\subset \mathbb{C}^n$ is a bounded $m$-convex domain with Dini-smooth boundary, or a bounded strongly pseudoconvex domain with…

We show that if the Kobayashi--Royden metric of a complex manifold is continuous and positive at a given point and any non-zero tangent vector, then the "derivatives" of the higher order Lempert functions exist and equal the respective…

In this article we proved an interesting property of the class of continuous convex functions. This leads to the form of pre-Hermite-Hadamard inequality which in turn admits a generalization of the famous Hermite-Hadamard inequality. Some…
