We obtain local and global results on polynomially convex hulls of Lagrangian and totally real submanifolds of $C^n$ with self-intersections and open Whitney umbrella points.
In this paper, we first prove that the totally real discs lying in certain Levi flat hypersurfaces are polynomially convex. As applications we prove that the totally real discs lying in the boundary of certain polynomial polyhedra are…
We study Levi-flat real analytic hypersurfaces with singularities. We prove that the Levi foliation on the regular part of the hypersurface can be holomorphically extended, in a suitable sense, to neighbourhoods of singular points.
The paper considers a class of Lagrangian surfaces in $\mathbb C^2$ with isolated singularities of the unfolded Whitney umbrella type. We prove that generically such a surface is locally polynomially convex near a singular point of this…
A primary goal in this paper is to study the question that asks when a real analytic submanifold $M$ in ${\mathbb{C}}^{n+1}$ bounds a real analytic (up to $M$) Levi-flat hypersurface $\hat{M}$ near $p\in M$ such that $\hat{M}$ is foliated…
We study the singular set of a singular Levi-flat real-analytic hypersurface. We prove that the singular set of such a hypersurface is Levi-flat in the appropriate sense. We also show that if the singular set is small enough, then the…
We prove local inequalities for analytic functions defined on a convex body in $\Re^{n}$ which generalize well-known classical inequalities for polynomials.
Let $M$ be a smooth manifold of dimension $n$ embedded in $\mathbb{C}^n$. If $T_pM \subset T_p\mathbb{C}^n$ is a totally real subspace for $p\in M$, then $M$ is locally polynomially convex at $p$. For a generic embedding $M$, we are…
We discuss domains of holomorphy and several notions of pseudoconvexity (drawing parallels with the corresponding notions from geometric convexity), and present a mostly self-contained solution to the Levi problem. We restrict our attention…
We study normal forms of germs of singular real-analytic Levi-flat hypersurfaces. We prove the existence of rigid normal forms for singular Levi-flat hypersurfaces which are defined by the vanishing of the real part of complex…
Local conditions on boundaries of $C^\infty$ Levi-flat hypersurfaces, in case the boundary is a generic submanifold, are studied. For nontrivial real analytic boundaries we get an extension and uniqueness result, which forces the…
The first part of this paper considers higher order CR invariants of three dimensional hypersurfaces of finite type. Using a full normal form we give a complete characterization of hypersurfaces with trivial local automorphism group, and…
In this paper, we prove a local rigidity of convex hypersurfaces in the spaces of constant curvature of dimension $n\ge4$. Namely, we show that two convex isometric hypersurfaces are congruent locally around their corresponding under the…
This survey paper, aimed at nonexperts in the field, explores various proofs of nonexistence of real analytic Levi-flat hypersurfaces in $\mathbb CP^n$, $n>2$. Some generalizations and other related results are also discussed.
We study singular real-analytic Levi-flat hypersurfaces in complex projective space. We define the rank of an algebraic Levi-flat hypersurface and study the connections between rank, degree, and the type and size of the singularity. In…
We consider the following question: Let $S_1$ and $S_2$ be two smooth, totally-real surfaces in $\mathbb{C}^2$ that contain the origin. If the union of their tangent planes is locally polynomially convex at the origin, then is $S_1 \cup…
It is proved that any smooth open Whitney umbrella in $\mathbb C^2$ is locally polynomially convex near the singular point.
This article describes a method to compute successive convex approximations of the convex hull of a set of points in R^n that are the solutions to a system of polynomial equations over the reals. The method relies on sums of squares of…
It is shown that a domain in $\C^n$ which is locally convex and has $\mathcal C^1$-smooth Levi-flat boundary is locally linearly equivalent to a Cartesian product of a planar domain and $\C^{n-1}.$ This result does not extend to the case…
In this paper we study the polynomial approximations in Hardy-Sobolev spaces on for convex domains. We use the method of pseudoanalytical continuation to obtain the characterization of these spaces in terms of polynomial approximations.
