We prove that an open set $D$ in $\C^n$ is pseudoconvex if and only if for any $z\in D$ the largest balanced domain centered at $z$ and contained in $D$ is pseudoconvex, and consider analogues of that characterization in the linearly convex…

We prove that there exists a bounded convex domain $\Omega \subset \mathbf{R}^3$ of fixed volume that minimizes the first positive curl eigenvalue among all other bounded convex domains of the same volume. We show that this optimal domain…

We study proper holomorphic mappings between strictly pseudoconvex domains with low boundary regularity.

We revisit the phenomenon where, for certain domains $D$, if the squeezing function $s_D$ extends continuously to a point $p\in \partial{D}$ with value $1$, then $\partial{D}$ is strongly pseudoconvex around $p$. In $\mathbb{C}^2$, we…

We give an explicit verifiable characterization of weakly pseudoconvex but locally nonconvexifiable hypersurfaces of finite type in dimension two. It is expressed in terms of a generalized model, which captures local geometry of the…

We show that, in dimensions $n\geq 3$, continuity and boundedness do not restore the Sobolev regularity conjecture of Iwaniec and Martin for weakly quasiregular mappings below the critical exponent. For every bounded domain…

It is shown that if the squeezing function tends to one at an h-extendible boundary point of a $\mathcal C^\infty$-smooth, bounded pseudoconvex domain, then the point is strictly pseudoconvex.

We prove that if a holomorphic self-map $f\colon \Omega\to \Omega$ of a bounded strongly convex domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb C^q$ with smooth boundary is hyperbolic then it admits a natural semi-conjugacy with a hyperbolic automorphism of…

We study the boundary regularity of proper holomorphic mappings between strictly pseudoconvex domains with $C^2$-boundaries.

Let A be a domain of the boundary of a strictly pseudoconvex domain \Omega of C^n and M a smooth, closed, maximally complex submanifold of A. We find a subdomain \widetilde A of \Omega, depending only on \Omega and A, and a complex…

On a bounded strictly pseudoconvex domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$, $n>1$, the smoothness of the Cheng-Yau solution to Fefferman's complex Monge-Ampere equation up to the boundary is obstructed by a local CR invariant of the boundary. For a…

We study how the existence of a negatively pinched K\"ahler metric on a domain in complex Euclidean space restricts the geometry of its boundary. In particular, we show that if a convex domain admits a complete K\"ahler metric, with pinched…

We introduce the notion of extremal basis of tangent vector fields at a boundary point of finite type of a pseudo-convex domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$. Then we define the class of geometrically separated domains at a boundary point, and give a…

We give, in dimensions three or greater, an example of a bounded, pseudoconvex, circular domain in complex space with smooth real analytic boundary and non-compact automorphism group which is not biholomorphically equivalent to any…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a convex domain and let $f:\Omega \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a positive, subharmonic function (i.e. $\Delta f \geq 0$). Then $$ \frac{1}{|\Omega|} \int_{\Omega}{f dx} \leq \frac{c_n}{ |\partial \Omega| }…

We consider the heat equation in a smooth bounded convex domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ with nonlinear Neumann boundary condition $\partial_\nu u = \lambda (u - u^3)$. Stable non-constant stationary solutions do not exist when…

The aim of this paper is to present a detailed and slightly modified version of the proof of the Lempert Theorem in the case of non-planar stronlgy linearly convex domains with C^2 smooth boundaries. The original Lempert's proof is…

In this paper, we construct a pseudoconvex domain in $\mathbb C^3$ where the Kobayashi metric does not blow up at a rate of one over distance to the boundary in the normal direction.

We give an example of a bounded, pseudoconvex, circular domain in ${\mathbb C}^3$ with smooth, real-analytic boundary and non-compact automorphism group, which is not biholomorphically equivalent to any Reinhardt domain.

A new proof of Oka's lemma is given for smoothly bounded, pseudoconvex domains $D\subset\mathbb{C}^n$. The method of proof is then also applied to other convexity-like hypotheses on the boundary of $D$.
