We show that a complex normal surface singularity admitting a contracting automorphism is necessarily quasihomogeneous. We also describe the geometry of a compact complex surface arising as the orbit space of such a contracting…

We prove the following CR version of Artin's approximation theorem for holomorphic mappings between real-algebraic sets in complex space. Let $M\subset \C^N$ be a real-algebraic CR submanifold whose CR orbits are all of the same dimension.…

We study pseudoholomorphic discs with boundaries attached to a real hypersurface in an almost complex manifold. We give sufficient conditions for filling a one sided neighborhood of the hypersurface by the discs.

We develop sheaf-theoretic methods to deal with non-smooth objects in symplectic geometry. We show the completeness of a derived category of sheaves with respect to the interleaving distance and construct a sheaf quantization of a…

We present examples, both compact and non-compact complete, of lo- cally non-homogeneous proper A-manifolds.

We study homeomorphisms of controlled $p$-module by certain integrals. In this way, we establish various properties of mappings and show that their features are close to quasiconformal and bilipschitz mappings.

We present a method to construct matrix models on arbitrary simply connected oriented real two dimensional Riemannian manifolds. The actions and the path integral measure are invariant under holomorphic transformations of matrix…

Conformal harmonic maps from a 4-dimensional conformal manifold to a Riemannian manifold are maps satisfying a certain conformally invariant fourth order equation. We prove a general existence result for conformal harmonic maps, analogous…

In this paper, we first construct $k$-dimensional compact complex manifolds from automorphisms of $\mathbb{C}^k$ which admit a fixed attracting point at infinity. Then, we charactize the fundamental group as well as the universal covering…

We show that smooth hypersurfaces in complex projective spaces with automorphism groups of maximum size are isomorphic to Fermat hypersurfaces, with a few exceptions. For the exceptions, we give explicitly the defining equations and…

H-holomorphic maps are a parameter version of J-holomorphic maps into contact manifolds. They have arisen in efforts to prove the existence of higher--genus holomorphic open book decompositions and efforts to prove the existence of finite…

We introduce a construction for a Cartan geometry that captures the local behavior of a given geometric automorphism near a distinguished element. The result of this construction, which we call the sprawl generated by the automorphism, is…

We show that for every countable group, any sequence of approximate homomorphisms with values in permutations can be realized as the restriction of a sofic approximation of an orbit equivalence relation. Moreover, this orbit equivalence…

We determine those smooth $n$--dimensional closed manifolds with $n \geq 4$ which admit round fold maps into ${\mathbb{R}}^{n-1}$, i.e.\ fold maps whose critical value sets consist of disjoint spheres of dimension $n-2$ isotopic to…

Using a flow first introduced by J.P. Anderson, we obtain some existence theorems for harmonic maps from a noncompact complete Riemannian manifold into a complete Riemannian manifold. In particular, we prove as a corollary a recent result…

We develop a holonomy reduction procedure for general Cartan geometries. We show that, given a reduction of holonomy, the underlying manifold naturally decomposes into a disjoint union of initial submanifolds. Each such submanifold…

We show that any viscosity solution to a general fully nonlinear nonlocal elliptic equation can be approximated by smooth ($C^\infty$) solutions.

We study discrete fixed point sets of holomorphic self-maps of complex manifolds. The main attention is focused on the cardinality of this set and its configuration. As a consequence of one of our observations, a bounded domain in ${\Bbb…

It was shown by Kaup that every origin-preserving automorphism of quasi-circular domains is a polynomial mapping. In this paper, we study how the weight of quasi-circular domains and the degree of such automorphisms are related. By using…

We study the relationship between quasihomotopy and path homotopy for Sobolev maps between manifolds. We employ singular integrals on manifolds to show that, in the critical exponent case, path homotopy implies quasihomotopy - and observe…
