Universal upper bounds for the Kobayashi and quasi-hyperbolic distances near Dini-smooth boundary points of domains in $\C^n$ and $\R^n,$ respectively, are obtained.

We introduce two notions of hyperbolicity for not necessarily K\"ahler even balanced $n$-dimensional compact complex manifolds $X$. The first, called {\it SKT hyperbolicity}, generalises Gromov's K\"ahler hyperbolicity by means of SKT…

For a generic hypersurface $\mathbb{X}^{n-1} \subset \mathbb{P}^n(\mathbb{C})$ of degree \[ d \,\geqslant\, n^{2n} \] (1) $\mathbb{P}^n \big\backslash \mathbb{X}^{n-1}$ is Kobayashi-hyperbolically imbedded in $\mathbb{P}^n$; (2)…

We give two new elementary proofs of the complete Kobayashi hyperbolicity of the twice-punctured complex plane. We also present an extremely short proof that bounded domains are complete Kobayashi hyperbolic. Our proofs rely neither on the…

We construct families of convex domains that are biholomorphic to bounded domains, but not bounded convex domains. This is accomplished by finding an obstruction related to the Gromov hyperbolicity of the Kobayashi metric.

In 1970, Kobayashi conjectured that general hypersurfaces of sufficiently large degree in $P^n$ are hyperbolic. In this paper we prove that a general sufficiently ample hypersurface in a smooth projective variety is hyperbolic. To prove…

Let $P$ be a minimal parabolic subgroup of a real reductive Lie group $G$ and $H$ a closed subgroup of $G$. Then it is proved by T. Kobayashi and T. Oshima that the regular representation $C^{\infty}(G/H)$ contains each irreducible…

This is essentially a survey paper in which we solve the global Cauchy problem on causal manifolds for hyperbolic systems of linear partial differential equations in the framework of hyperfunctions. Besides the classical Cauchy-Kowalevsky…

We give an explicit lower bound, in terms of the distance from the boundary, for the Kobayashi metric of a certain class of bounded pseudoconvex domains in $\mathbb{C}^n$ with $\mathcal{C}^2$-smooth boundary using the regularity theory for…

Suppose n>2, let M,M' be n-dimensional connected complete finite-volume hyperbolic manifolds with non-empty geodesic boundary, and suppose that the fundamental group of M is quasi-isometric to the fundamental group of M' (with respect to…

We use fake supergravity as a solution generating technique to obtain a continuum of non-supersymmetric asymptotically $AdS_4\times S^7$ domain wall solutions of eleven-dimensional supergravity with non-trivial scalars in the…

We generalize a fundamental theorem in higher dimensional value distribution theory about entire curves in subvarieties $X$ of semi-abelian varieties to the situation of the sequences of holomorphic maps from the unit disc into $X$. This…

We classify all homogeneous Kobayashi-hyperbolic manifolds of dimension $n \ge 2$ whose group of holomorphic automorphisms has dimension either $n^2 - 7$ or $n^2 - 8.$ This paper continues the work of A. Isaev, who classified all such…

We prove a remarkable generalization of a convexity theorem for semisimple symmetric spaces G/H established earlier in 1986 by the second named author. The latter result generalized Kostant's non-linear convexity theorem for the Iwasawa…

We study the boundary behavior of the Kobayashi-Royden metric and the Kobayashi hyperbolicity of domains in Riemannian manifolds. As an application, we prove a Fatou type theorem on the existence, almost everywhere, of non tangential limits…

We explicitly classify all pairs $(M,G)$, where $M$ is a connected complex manifold of dimension $n\ge 2$ and $G$ is a connected Lie group acting properly and effectively on $M$ by holomorphic transformations and having dimension $d_G$…

Let $D\subset \mathbb C^n$ be a bounded domain. A pair of distinct boundary points $\{p,q\}$ of $D$ has the visibility property provided there exist a compact subset $K_{p,q}\subset D$ and open neighborhoods $U_p$ of $p$ and $U_q$ of $q$,…

We introduce two notions of hyperbolicity for not necessarily K\"ahler $n$-dimensional compact complex manifolds $X$. The first, called {\it balanced hyperbolicity}, generalises Gromov's K\"ahler hyperbolicity by means of Gauduchon's…

We simplify proof of the theorem that close to any pseudoholomorphic disk there passes a pseudoholomorphic disk of arbitrary close size with any pre-described sufficiently close direction. We apply these results to the Kobayashi and Hanh…

We first give a sufficient condition, issued from pluripotential theory, for an unbounded domain in the complex Euclidean space $\mathbb C^n$ to be Kobayashi hyperbolic. Then, we construct an example of a rigid pseudoconvex domain in…
