The estimate [\lVert D^{k-1}u\rVert_{L^{n/(n-1)}} \le \lVert A(D)u \rVert_{L^1} ] is shown to hold if and only if (A(D)) is elliptic and canceling. Here (A(D)) is a homogeneous linear differential operator (A(D)) of order (k) on…

When ${\frak g}$ is a complex semisimple Lie algebra, we study the variety ${\mathcal L}$ of subalgebras of ${\frak g}\oplus{\frak g}$ that are maximally isotropic with respect to $K_1 - K_2$, where $K_i$ is the Killing form on the ith…

Given a triangulated region in the complex plane, a discrete vector field $Y$ assigns a vector $Y_i\in \mathbb{C}$ to every vertex. We call such a vector field holomorphic if it defines an infinitesimal deformation of the triangulation that…
