In this paper, we introduce a method known as polynomial frame approximation for approximating smooth, multivariate functions defined on irregular domains in $d$ dimensions, where $d$ can be arbitrary. This method is simple, and relies only…

In this paper, we introduce a concept of super-pseudoconvex domain. We prove that the solution of the Feffereman equation on a smoothly bounded strictly pseudoconvex domain $D$ in $\CC^n$ is plurisubharmonic if and only if $D$ is…

We investigate the validity and the stability of various Minkowski-like inequalities for $C^1$-perturbations of the ball. Let $K\subseteq\mathbb R^n$ be a domain (possibly not convex and not mean-convex) which is $C^1$-close to a ball. We…

We introduce and study the notion of plurisubharmonic functions in calibrated geometry. These functions generalize the classical plurisubharmonic functions from complex geometry and enjoy their important properties. Moreover, they exist in…

We study the plurisubharmonic envelopes of functions in the setting of domains in $\mathbb C^n$. In particular we prove a complex analogue of a result of De Philippis and Figalli concerning the optimal regularity of such envelopes in smooth…

Let D be a smoothly bounded domain in C^2. Suppose that D admits a smooth defining function which is plurisubharmonic on the boundary of D. Then the Diederich-Fornaess exponent can be chosen arbitrarily close to 1, and the closure of D…

We study the problem of approximating plurisubharmonic functions on a bounded domain $\Omega$ by continuous plurisubharmonic functions defined on neighborhoods of $\bar\Omega$. It turns out that this problem can be linked to the problem of…

We show that a smooth bounded domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$ admitting partial pseudoconvex exhaustion remains partial pseudoconvex. The main ingredient of the proof is based on a new characterization of hyper-$q$-convex domains. Furthermore, we…

In this paper we introduce the notion of a quasi-modular and we prove that the respective Minkowski functional of the unit quasi-modular ball becomes a quasi-norm. In this way, we refer to and complete the well-known theory related to the…

The central purpose of the present paper is to study boundary behavior of squeezing functions on bounded domains. We prove that the squeezing function of a strongly pseudoconvex domain tends to 1 near the boundary. In fact, such an estimate…

We present some results dealing with the local geometry of almost complex manifolds. We establish mainly the complete hyperbolicity of strictly pseudoconvex domains, the extension of plurisubharmonic functions through generic submanifolds…

This note establishes smooth approximation from above for J-plurisubharmonic functions on an almost complex manifold (X,J). The following theorem is proved. Suppose X is J-pseudoconvex, i.e., X admits a smooth strictly J-plurisubharmonic…

We introduce a notion of the Bergman-Shilov (or Shilov) boundary for some subclasses of upper-semicontinuous functions on a compact Hausdorff space. It is by definition the smallest closed subset of the given space on which all functions of…

First, we give the definition for quasi-nearly subharmonic functions, now for general, not necessarily nonnegative functions, unlike previously. We point out that our function class incudes, among others, quasisubharmonic functions, nearly…

We show that the equality $m_1(f(x))=m_2(g(x))$ for $x$ in a neighborhood of a point $a$ remains valid for all $x$ provided that $f$ and $g$ are open holomorphic maps, $f(a)=g(a)=0$ and $m_1,$ $m_2$ are Minkowski functionals of bounded…

A mathematical smooth function means that the function has continuous derivatives to a certain degree C(k). We call it a k-smooth function or a smooth function if k can grow infinitively. Based on quantum physics, there is no such smooth…
