In their celebrated work, B. Andrews and J. Clutterbuck proved the fundamental gap (the difference between the first two eigenvalues) conjecture for convex domains in the Euclidean space and conjectured similar results holds for spaces with…
Given a smooth simply connected planar domain, the area is bounded away from zero in terms of the maximal curvature alone. We show that in higher dimensions this is not true, and for a given maximal mean curvature we provide smooth…
We derive an upper bound on the size of a ball such that the image of the ball under quadratic map is strongly convex and smooth. Our result is the best possible improvement of the analogous result by Polyak in the case of quadratic map. We…
Variational analysis presents a unified theory encompassing in particular both smoothness and convexity. In a Euclidean space, convex sets and smooth manifolds both have straightforward local geometry. However, in the most basic hybrid case…
The Diederich--Forn\ae ss index has been introduced since 1977 to classify bounded pseudoconvex domains. In this article, we derive several intrinsic, geometric conditions on boundary of domains for arbitrary indexes. Many results, in the…
We show that a domain that satisfies the visibility property with $\mathcal C^2$-smooth boundary is pseudoconvex.
A homemorphism between domains in $\mathbb R^n$, $n\ge 2$ is quasiconformal, with its intricate analytic and geometric consequences, if the (pointwise) linear dilatation -- a purely metric quantity -- is uniformly bounded. Gehring proved…
We prove a generalization of Gromov's conjecture on scalar curvature rigidity of convex polytopes to arbitrary convex Riemannian polytope type domains via harmonic spinors on convex domians with boundary condition constructed by Brendle. In…
Studying the behavior of real and complex geodesics we provide sharp estimates for the Kobayashi distance, the Lempert function, and the Carath\'eodory distance on $\mathcal{C}^{2,\alpha}$-smooth strongly pseudoconvex domains. Similar…
The boundary behavior of the Bergman metric near a convex boundary point $z_0$ of a pseudoconvex domain $D\subset\CC^n$ is studied; it turns out that the Bergman metric at points $z\in D$ in direction of a fixed vector $X_0\in\CC^n$ tends…
A generalized Fock-Bargmann-Hartogs domain $D_n^{\mathbf{m},\mathbf{p}}$ is defined as a domain fibered over $\mathbb{C}^{n}$ with the fiber over $z\in \mathbb{C}^{n}$ being a generalized complex ellipsoid…
Often some interesting or simply curious points are left out when developing a theory. It seems that one of them is the existence of an upper bound for the fraction of area of a convex and closed plane area lying outside a circle with which…
We investigate the notion of symplectic divisorial compactification for symplectic 4-manifolds with either convex or concave type boundary. This is motivated by the notion of compactifying divisors for open algebraic surfaces. We give a…
Given a closed complex hypersurface $Z\subset \mathbb{C}^{N+1}$ $(N\in\mathbb{N})$ and a compact subset $K\subset Z$, we prove the existence of a pseudoconvex Runge domain $D$ in $Z$ such that $K\subset D$ and there is a complete proper…
We prove that a 3--dimensional hyperbolic cusp with convex polyhedral boundary is uniquely determined by its Gauss image. Furthermore, any spherical metric on the torus with cone singularities of negative curvature and all closed…
We prove that any $n$-dimensional closed mean convex $\lambda$-hypersurface is convex if $\lambda\le 0.$ This generalizes Guang's work on $2$-dimensional strictly mean convex $\lambda$-hypersurfaces. As a corollary, we obtain a gap theorem…
We give a potential theoretic characterization for compactness of the dbar-Neumann problem on smooth bounded pseudoconvex domains in C^n.
A bounded domain in several complex variables with connected Lipschitz boundary is pseudoconvex if and only if the bottom of the (essential) spectrum of the Kohn Laplacian is positive on all (0, q)-forms with square-integrable coefficients.
This paper discusses a more general contractive condition for a class of extended cyclic self-mappings on the union of a finite number of subsets of a metric space which are allowed to have a finite number of successive images in the same…
We prove that for a bounded domain in $\mathbb C^n$ with the Bergman metric of constant holomorphic sectional curvature being biholomorphic to a ball is equivalent to the hyperconvexity or the exhaustiveness of the Bergman-Calabi diastasis.…
