Suppose $[\mu]_{T(\Delta)}$ is a point of the universal Teichm\"uller space $T(\Delta)$. In 1998, it was shown by Bo\v{z}in et al. that there exists $\mu$ such that $\mu$ has non-constant modulus and is uniquely extremal in…

A notable example due to Heier, Lu, Wong, and Zheng shows that there exist compact complex K\"ahler manifolds with ample canonical line bundle such that the holomorphic sectional curvature is negative semi-definite and vanishes along…

Every convex homogeneous polynomial (or form) is nonnegative. Blekherman has shown that there exist convex forms that are not sums of squares via a nonconstructive argument. We provide an explicit example of a convex form of degree four in…

We prove a Caffarelli--Kohn--Nirenberg inequality in the hyperbolic space. For a semilinear elliptic equation involving the associated weighted Laplace--Beltrami operator, we establish variationally the existence of positive radial…

In this paper we prove a quaternionic positive real lemma as well as its generalized version, in case the associated kernel has negative squares for slice hyperholomorphic functions. We consider the case of functions with positive real part…

An outstanding open question, which has attracted renewed attention following the pioneering work of Huang--Li--Treuer, is whether, for a given positive integer $m$, there exists a complex manifold whose Bergman metric is locally isometric…

In this note we settle two open problems in the theory of permanents by using recent results from other areas of mathematics. Bapat conjectured that certain quotients of permanents, which generalize symmetric function means, are concave. We…

We prove that every rational angled hyperbolic triangle has transcendental side lengths and that every rational angled hyperbolic quadrilateral has at least one transcendental side length. Thus, there does not exist a rational angled…

In this paper, we get an inequality in terms of holomorphic sectional curvature of complex Finsler metrics. As applications, we prove a Schwarz Lemma from a complete Riemannian manifold to a complex Finsler manifold. We also show that a…

The conventional decomposition of a vector field into longitudinal (potential) and transverse (vortex) components (Helmholtz's theorem) is claimed in [1] to be inapplicable to the time-dependent vector fields and, in particular, to the…

Following P. M. H. Wilson's paper on sectional curvatures of Kahler moduli, we consider a natural Riemannian metric on a hypersurface f=1 in a real vector space, defined using the Hessian of a homogeneous polynomial f. We give examples to…

A number of papers over the past eight years have claimed to solve the fractional Schr\"{o}dinger equation for systems ranging from the one-dimensional infinite square well to the Coulomb potential to one-dimensional scattering with a…

Let ${\bf A} \in R^{n \times n}$ be a nonnegative irreducible square matrix and let $r({\bf A})$ be its spectral radius and Perron-Frobenius eigenvalue. Levinger asserted and several have proven that $r(t):=r((1{-}t) {\bf A} + t {\bf…

We show in this paper that there exists no $H$-fractional Brownian field indexed by the cylinder $\mathbb{S}^1 \times ]0,\varepsilon[$ endowed with its product distance $d$ for any $\varepsilon>0$ and $H>0$. This is equivalent to say that…

We obtain a Kaehler Einstein structure on the nonzero cotangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold of positive constant sectional curvature. The obtained Kaehler Einstein structure cannot have constant holomorphic sectional curvature and is…

Recently, Stull [18], [17] resolved a long-standing open problem posed by Lutz, on whether the set of effective Hausdorff dimensions of points on a straight line in $\mathbb{R}^2$ -- the effective dimension spectrum of the line -- contains…

We obtain a locally symmetric Kaehler Einstein structure on the cotangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold of negative constant sectional curvature. Similar results are obtained on a tube around zero section in the cotangent bundle, in the…

We prove the existence of non-radial entire solution to $$\Delta^2 u+u^{-q}=0\quad\text{in }\mathbb{R}^3,\quad u>0,$$ for $q>1$. This answers an open question raised by P. J. McKenna and W. Reichel (E. J. D. E. \textbf{37} (2003) 1-13).

In this paper, we proved that any 2-convex solution $u$ of $\sigma_2(D^2u)=1$ with a quadratic growth must be a quadratic polynomial in $\mathbb{R}^n\ (n\geq 3 )$ by using a Pogorelov estimate and the global gradient estimate. And we give a…

We prove a uniform estimate, valid for every closed Riemann surface of genus at least two, that bounds the distance of any quadratic differential to the finite dimensional space of holomorphic quadratic differentials in terms of its…
