For a domain $\Omega$ in a geodesically convex surface, we introduce a scattering energy $\mathcal{E}(\Omega)$, which measures the asymmetry of $\Omega$ by quantifying its incompatibility with an isometric circle action. We prove several…

This paper is a continuation of the program started by Ruan in 2003, of developing real operator space theory. In particular, we develop the theory of real operator algebras. We also show among other things that the injective envelope,…

We study the nodal set of the Steklov eigenfunctions on the boundary of a smooth bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ - the eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. Under the assumption that the domain $\Omega$ is $C^2$, we prove a…

In the spirit of Lelong and Bochner, we show that an upper semi-continuous function defined on a open tube set $\Omega=\omega + i\mathbb{R}^n$ in $\mathbb{C}^n$, where $\omega$ is an open set in $\mathbb{R}^n$, and which is invariant in its…

For any triple $(M^n, g, \nabla)$ consisting of a Riemannian manifold and a metric connection with skew-symmetric torsion we introduce an elliptic, second order operator $\Omega$ acting on spinor fields. In case of a reductive space and its…

Seiberg-Witten theory leads to a delicate interplay between Riemannian geometry and smooth topology in dimension four. In particular, the scalar curvature of any metric must satisfy certain non-trivial estimates if the manifold in question…

In this paper we address two problems concerning a family of domains $M_{\Omega}(\mu) \subset \C^n$, called Cartan-Hartogs domains, endowed with a natural Kaehler metric $g(\mu)$. The first one is determining when the metric $g(\mu)$ is…

To a Riemannian manifold $(M, g)$ endowed with a magnetic form ${\sigma}$ and its Lorentz operator ${\Omega}$ we associate an operator $M^{\Omega}$, called the magnetic curvature operator. Such an operator encloses the classical Riemannian…

We consider twisted eigenvalues $\lambda_{1}^{g}(\Omega)$, defined as the minimum of the Rayleigh quotient of functions in $H^1_{0}(\Omega)$ that are orthogonal to a given function $g\in L^2_\text{loc}(\mathbb R^d)$. We prove an…

We deal with the concrete spectral analysis of an invariant magnetic Schr\"odinger operator acting on one dimensional $L^2$-mixed automorphic functions with respect to given equivariant pair $ (\rho,\tau) $ and given discrete subgroup of…

This very rough sketch is a sequel to arXiv:1808.08587; it presents evidence that operations on lifts of the functors K(n) to cohomology theories with values in modules over valuation rings of local number fields, indexed by Lubin-Tate…

We generalize some facts about function algebras to operator algebras, using the `noncommutative Shilov boundary' or $C^*$-envelope first considered by Arveson. In the first part we study and characterize complete isometries between…

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.

We consider the following extension of the classical Liouville theorem: A calibration $\omega \in \Lambda^n \mathbb{R}^m$, where $3 \le n \le m$, has the Liouville property if a Sobolev mapping $F\colon \Omega \to \mathbb{R}^m$, where…

Let \beta : S^n \to S^n, for n = 2k + 1, k \geq 1, be one of the known examples of a non-uniquely ergodic minimal diffeomorphism of an odd dimensional sphere. For every such minimal dynamical system (S^n, \beta) there is a Cantor minimal…

We prove that for every $n \ge 2$, there exists a pseudoconvex domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{C}^n$ such that $\mathfrak{c}^0(\Omega) \subsetneq \mathfrak{c}^1(\Omega)$, where $\mathfrak{c}^k(\Omega)$ denotes the core of $\Omega$ with…

These notes cover the contents of three survey lectures held at the ICTP Trieste Summer school on High dimensional manifold theory 2001. They introduce techniques coming from the theory of operator algebras. We will focus on the basic…

We provide an extension of the Gromov--Zimmer Embedding Theorem for Cartan geometries of [3] to tractor bundles carrying any invariant connection, including tractor connections and prolongation connections of first BGG operators for…

In this paper, we are interested in the possible values taken by the pair $(\lambda_1(\Omega), \mu_1(\Omega))$ the first eigenvalues of the Laplace operator with Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions respectively of a bounded plane…

A classical result of Sz.-Nagy asserts that a Hilbert-space contraction operator $T$ can be lifted to an isometry $V$. A more general multivariable setting of recent interest for these ideas is the case where (i) the unit disk is replaced…
