In this paper we study optimization problems for Neumann eigenvalues $\mu_k$ among convex domains with a constraint on the diameter or the perimeter. We work mainly in the plane, though some results are stated in higher dimension. We study…
We prove a homotopy formula which yields almost sharp estimates in all (positive-indexed) Sobolev and H\"older-Zygmund spaces for the $\overline \partial$ equation on pseudoconvex domains of finite type in $\mathbb C^2$, extending the…
We show that on bounded Lipschitz pseudoconvex domains that admit good weight functions the $\overline{\partial}$-Neumann operators $N_q, \overline{\partial}^* N_{q}$, and $\overline{\partial} N_{q}$ are bounded on $L^p$ spaces for some…
The operator function (A,B)\to\tr f(A,B)(K^*)K, defined on pairs of bounded self-adjoint operators in the domain of a function f of two real variables, is convex for every Hilbert Schmidt operator K, if and only if f is operator convex. As…
We show that compactness of the $\overline{\partial}$-Neumann operator is independent of the metric, and we give a new proof of this independence for subellipticity. We define an abstract obstruction to compactness, namely the common zero…
We prove the existence of minimizers for functionals defined over the class of convex domains contained inside a bounded set D of R^N and with prescribed volume. Some applications are given, in particular we prove that the eigenvalues of…
For a large class of convex domains in $\bf C^n$, it is shown that an $L^p$ function on the boundary is CR if there are holomorphic extensions on almost all slices of D by complex lines parallel to the coordinate axes. As an application, a…
We construct a solution operator for $\overline{\partial}$ equation that gains $\frac{1}{2}$ derivative in the fractional Sobolev space $H^{s,p}$ on bounded strictly pseudoconvex domains in $\mathbb{C}^n$ with $C^2$ boundary, for all $1 < p…
We study small Hankel operators $h_b$ with operator-valued holomorphic symbol $b$ on a class of vector-valued Fock type spaces. We show that the boundedness / compactness of $h_b$ is equivalent to the membership of $b$ to a specific growth…
We consider the ground state $\phi_0$ of the Schr\"odinger operator $L=-\Delta+V$ on the bounded convex domain $\Omega\subset\R^n$, satisfying the Dirichlet boundary condition. Assume that $V\in C^1(\Omega)$ and it admits an even function…
We give simple new proofs of two well-known results for the Schr\"odinger operator: first, the Brunn--Minkowski inequality for Dirichlet eigenvalues and, second, the log-concavity of the first Dirichlet eigenfunction. Our proof of the first…
We present new completeness conditions for exponential systems on the complex plane in Banach algebras of continuous functions on a compact with a connected complement that are simultaneously holomorphic in the interior of this compact if…
Homogeneous complex manifolds satisfying various types of Levi conditions are considered. Classical results which were of particular interest to Andreotti are recalled. Convexity and concavity properties of flag domains are discussed in…
In this article we establish a global subelliptic estimate for Kramers-Fokker-Planck operators with homogeneous potentials $V(q)$ under some conditions, involving in particular the control of the eigenvalues of the Hessian matrix of the…
We consider proper holomorphic mappings of equidimensional pseudoconvex domains in complex Euclidean space, where both source and target can be represented as Cartesian products of smoothly bounded domains. It is shown that such mappings…
We develop a method for proving sup-norm and H\"older estimates for $\overline{\partial}$ on wide class of finite type pseudoconvex domains in $\mathbb{C}^n$. A fundamental obstruction to proving sup-norm estimates is the possibility of…
This paper is concerned with proving superlogarithmic estimates for the operator $\Box_b$ on pseudoconvex CR manifolds and using them to establish hypoellipticity of $\Box_b$ and of the $\bar{\partial}$-Neumann problem. These estimates are…
Let $\Omega$ be an unbounded, pseudoconvex domain in $\Bbb C^n$ and let $\varphi$ be a $\mathcal C^2$-weight function plurisubharmonic on $\Omega$. We show both necessary and sufficient conditions for existence and compactness of a weighted…
We study the Dirichlet problem on a bounded convex domain of $\mathbb R^N$, with zero boundary data, for truncated Laplacians ${\mathcal P}_k^\pm$, with $k<N$. We establish a necessary and sufficient condition (Theorem 1) in terms of the…
In this paper, we consider Hankel operators, with locally integrable symbols, densely defined on a family of Fock-type spaces whose weights are $C^3$-logarithmic growth functions with mild smoothness conditions. It is shown that a Hankel…
