We prove the subsolution theorem for the complex Hessian equations in a smoothly bounded strongly $m$-pseudoconvex domain, $1 < m < n$, in $\bC^n$.
In this paper, we study Hessian type equations for $m-\omega$ subharmonic functions. Using the recent results in \cite{KN23a}, \cite{KN23b}, we are able to show the existence of bounded solutions for such equations on bounded domains in…
This note adapts the sophisticated Richberg technique for approximation in pluripotential theory to the $F$-potential theory associated to a general nonlinear convex subequation $F \subset J^2(X)$ on a manifold $X$. The main theorem is the…
We show that on almost complex surfaces plurisubharmonic functions can be locally approximated by smooth plurisubharmonic functions. The main tool is the Poletsky type theorem due to U. Kuzman.
We construct a special plurisubharmonic defining function for a smoothly bounded strictly pseudoconvex domain so that the determinant of the complex Hessian vanishes to high order on the boundary. This construction, coupled with regularity…
The Minkowski function is a crucial tool used in the study of balanced domains and, more generally, quasi-balanced domains in several complex variables. If a quasi-balanced domain is bounded and pseudoconvex then it is well-known that its…
We characterise in this work the $q$-plurisubharmonic functions in terms of the theory of viscosity solutions. We show that an upper semicontinuous function is $q$-plurisubharmonic if and only if its complex Hessian has at most $q$ strictly…
A subequation on an open subset $X\subset \mathbb R^n$ is a subset $F$ of the space of $2$-jets on $X$ with certain properties. A smooth function is said to be $F$-subharmonic if all of its $2$-jets lie in $F$, and using the viscosity…
We use sup-convolution to find upper approximations of a bounded $m$-subharmonic function on a compact K\"ahler manifold with nonnegative holomorphic bisectional curvature. As an application, we show the H\"older continuity of solutions to…
We compute a Simons' type formula for the stress-energy tensor of biharmonic maps from surfaces. Specializing to Riemannian immersions, we prove several rigidity results for biharmonic CMC surfaces, putting in evidence the influence of the…
Let $(X,\omega)$ be a compact K\"{a}hler manifold of dimension $n$, and fix $1\leq m\leq n.$ We prove that the complex Hessian equation $(\omega+dd^c\varphi)^m\wedge \omega^{n-m}=f\omega^n$, with $0<f\in \mathcal{C}^{\infty}(X)$ has a…
The purpose of this paper is to develop some methods to study Riesz type inequalities, Hardy-Littlewood type theorems and smooth moduli of holomorphic, pluriharmonic and harmonic functions in high-dimensional cases. Initially, we prove some…
Many problems of theoretical and practical interest involve finding a convex or concave function. For instance, optimization problems such as finding the projection on the convex functions in $H^k(\Omega)$, or some problems in economics. In…
The notion of spherically symmetric superfunctions as functions invariant under the orthosymplectic group is introduced. This leads to dimensional reduction theorems for differentiation and integration in superspace. These spherically…
This note establishes smooth approximation from above for J-plurisubharmonic functions on an almost complex manifold (X,J). The following theorem is proved. Suppose X is J-pseudoconvex, i.e., X admits a smooth strictly J-plurisubharmonic…
We prove that every smooth closed manifold admits a smooth real-valued function with only two critical values. We call a function of this type a \emph{Reeb function}. We prove that for a Reeb function we can prescribe the set of minima (or…
We initiate the study of $m$-subharmonic functions with respect to a semipositive $(1,1)$-form in Euclidean domains, providing a significant element in understanding geodesics within the context of complex Hessian equations. Based on the…
It is developed the theory of the Dirichlet problem for harmonic functions. On this basis, for the nondegenerate Beltrami equations in the quasidisks and, in particular, in the smooth domains, it is proved the existence of regular solutions…
Smooth K-functors are introduced and the smooth K-theory of locally convex algebras is developed. It is proved that the algebraic and smooth K-functors are isomorphic on the category of quasi stable real (or complex) Frechet algebras.
In this paper, by modifying significantly the Friedrichs-Gross mollifier technique and/or using the Lasry-Lions regularization technique together with some carefully chosen cut-off functions, for the first time we construct explicitly…
