Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^2$ be a bounded domain of class $C^{2+\alpha}$, $0<\alpha<1$. We show that if $u$ is the solution of $\Delta u = 4\exp(2u)$ which tends to $+\infty$ as $(x,y)\to\partial\Omega$, then the hyperbolic radius…

In this paper, we obtain optimal upper bounds for all the Neumann eigenvalues in two situations (that are closely related). First we consider a one-dimensional Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem where the density is a function $h(x)$ whose…

We study an overdetermined eigenvalue problem for domains $\Omega$ contained in the half-cylinder $\Sigma=\omega \times (0, +\infty)$, based on a bounded regular domain $\omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{N-1}$. It is easy to see that in any…

Let $D$ be a strictly pseudoconvex domain and $X$ be a singular analytic set of pure dimension $n-1$ in $C^n$ such that $X\cap D\neq \emptyset$ and $X\cap bD$ is transverse. We give sufficient conditions for a function holomorphic on $D\cap…

We prove a rigidity theorem for the Bergman metric on Hartogs domains over bounded homogeneous domains. Let $\Omega\subset \mathbb C^n$ be a bounded homogeneous domain, let $K_\Omega$ denote its Bergman kernel, and consider $$…

We consider Monge-Amp\`ere equations with right hand side $f$ that degenerate to $\infty$ near the boundary of a convex domain $\Omega$, which are of the type $$\mathrm{det}\;D^2 u=f\quad\mathrm{in}\;\Omega,\quad\quad f\sim…

In this paper, we study conditions which ensure the existence of backward flow invariant domains for semigroups of holomorphic self-mappings of a simply connected domain $D$. More precisely, the problem is the following. Given a…

Comparing Neumann and Dirichlet eigenvalues of the Laplacian on a bounded domain $\Omega\subseteq\Rbb^n$ is a topic that goes back at least to the work of P\'olya \cite{polya}. We study the effect of the isoperimetric ratio of $\Omega$ on…

Given a bounded domain $\Omega \subset {\mathbb R}^{n}$ with $n\ge2$, let $\phi $ is a Young function satisfying the doubling condition with the constant $K_\phi<2^{n}$. If $\Omega$ is a John domain, we show that $\Omega $ supports a…

We begin by giving an example of a smoothly bounded convex domain that has complex geodesics that do not extend continuously up to $\partial\mathbb{D}$. This example suggests that continuity at the boundary of the complex geodesics of a…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ be a bounded, convex domain and let $-\Delta \phi_1 = \mu_1 \phi_1$ be the first nontrivial Laplacian eigenfunction with Neumann boundary conditions. The Hot Spots conjecture claims that the maximum and…

We prove that if $D\subset C^n$ is a bounded domain with real analytic boundary and D is pseudoconvex then the compact open topology in the group of holomorphic automorphisms of D is the topology of uniform convergence on D.

Let $ \Omega \subsetneq \mathbf{R}^n\,(n\geq 2)$ be an unbounded convex domain. We study the minimal surface equation in $\Omega$ with boundary value given by the sum of a linear function and a bounded uniformly continuous function in $…

Let N be a complete, simply-connected surface of constant curvature \kappa \leq 0. Moreover, suppose that \Omega and \tilde{\Omega} are strictly convex domains in N with the same area. We show that there exists an area-preserving…

We consider shape functionals of the form $F_q(\Omega)=P(\Omega)T^q(\Omega)$ on the class of open sets of prescribed Lebesgue measure. Here $q>0$ is fixed, $P(\Omega)$ denotes the perimeter of $\Omega$ and $T(\Omega)$ is the torsional…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a domain that supports the $p$-Poincar\'e inequality. Given a homeomorphism $\varphi \in L^1_p(\Omega)$, for $p>n$ we show the domain $\varphi(\Omega)$ has finite geodesic diameter. This result has a…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{C}$ be an open set. We show that $\overline{\partial}$ has closed range in $L^{2}(\Omega)$ if and only if the Poincar\'e-Dirichlet inequality holds. Moreover, we give necessary and sufficient potential-theoretic…

In this paper, we prove that a domain which verifies some integral inequality is either (strictly) contained in the solution of some free boundary problem, or it coincides with an $N$-ball. We also present new overdetermined value problems…

We prove an analogue of Alexander's Theorem for holomorphic mappings of the unit ball in a complex Hilbert space: Every holomorphic mapping which takes a piece of the boundary of the unit ball into the boundary of the unit ball and whose…

Let $\Omega\subset{\mathbb R}^2$ be a bounded domain on which Hardy's inequality holds. We prove that $[\exp(u^2)-1]/\delta^2\in L^1(\Omega)$ if $u\in H^1_0(\Omega)$, where $\delta$ denotes the distance to $\partial\Omega$. The…
