Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$ be a $C^1$ domain, or more generally, a Lipschitz domain with small local Lipschitz constant. In this paper it is shown that if $u$ is a function harmonic in $\Omega$ and continuous in $\overline \Omega$ which…

We consider the functional $$I_\Omega(v) = \int_\Omega [f(|Dv|) - v] dx,$$ where $\Omega$ is a bounded domain and $f$ is a convex function. Under general assumptions on $f$, G. Crasta [Cr1] has shown that if $I_\Omega$ admits a minimizer in…

A differentiable function is pseudoconvex if and only if its restrictions over straight lines are pseudoconvex. A differentiable function depending on one variable, defined on some closed interval $[a,b]$ is pseudoconvex if and only if…

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 show that in a bounded Gromov hyperbolic domain $\Omega$ smooth functions with bounded derivatives $C^\infty(\Omega)\cap W^{k,\infty}(\Omega)$ are dense in the homogeneous Sobolev spaces $L^{k,p}(\Omega)$.

We say that a bounded domain $\Omega$ is optimal for the first positive curl eigenvalue $\mu_1(\Omega)$ if $\mu_1(\Omega)\leq \mu_1(\Omega')$ for any domain $\Omega'$ with the same volume. In spite of the fact that $\mu_1(\Omega)$ is…

The main purpose of the present paper is to introduce the notion of squeezing functions of bounded domains and study some properties of them. The relation to geometric and analytic structures of bounded domains will be investigated.…

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…

In this article, we study convex affine domains which can cover a compact affine manifold. For this purpose, we first show that every strictly convex quasi-homogeneous projective domain has at least $C^1$ boundary and it is an ellipsoid if…

It is proved for a strongly pseudoconvex domain $D$ in $\Bbb C^d$ with $\mathcal C^{2,\alpha}$-smooth boundary that any complex geodesic through every two close points of $D$ sufficiently close to $\partial D$ and whose difference is…

We prove that for a bounded domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb R^n$ which is Gromov hyperbolic with respect to the quasihyperbolic metric, especially when $\Omega$ is a finitely connected planar domain, the Sobolev space $W^{1,\,\infty}(\Omega)$…

It is an observation due to J.J. Kohn that for a smooth bounded pseudoconvex domain D in $C^n$ there exists s>0 such that the dbar-Neumann operator on D maps $W^s_{(0,1)}(D)$ (the space of $(0,1)$-forms with coefficient functions in…

We consider various notions of vanishing mean oscillation on a (possibly unbounded) domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, and prove an analogue of Sarason's theorem, giving sufficient conditions for the density of bounded Lipschitz…

Let $(\Omega,K_{\Omega})$ be a convex domain in $\mathbb C^d$ with the Kobayashi metric $K_{\Omega}$. In this paper we prove that $m$-convexity is a necessary condition for $(\Omega, K_{\Omega})$ to be CAT(0) if $d=2$. Moreover, when…

We provide a novel approach to approximate bounded Lipschitz domains via a sequence of smooth, bounded domains. The flexibility of our method allows either inner or outer approximations of Lipschitz domains which also possess weakly defined…

Let $\Omega=\widetilde{\Omega}\setminus \overline{D}$ where $\widetilde{\Omega}$ is a bounded domain with connected complement in $\mathbb C^n$ (or more generally in a Stein manifold) and $D$ is relatively compact open subset of…

Assume that $\Omega_{1}$ and $\Omega_{2}$ are two smooth bounded pseudoconvex domains in $\mathbb{C}^{2}$ that intersect (real) transversely, and that $\Omega_{1} \cap \Omega_{2}$ is a domain (i.e. is connected). If the…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, $n \geq 1$, be an open and connected set. Set $\mathcal{T}_n$ to be the set of points $\xi \in \partial \Omega$ so that there exists an approximate tangent $n$-plane for $\partial\Omega$ at $\xi$ and…

The squeezing problem on $\mathbb{C}$ can be stated as follows. Suppose that $\Omega$ is a multiply connected domain in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ containing the origin $z=0$. How far can the boundary of $\Omega$ be pushed from the origin…
