We prove that for a pseudoconvex domain of the form $\mathfrak{A} = \{(z, w) \in \mathbb C^2 : v > F(z, u)\}$, where $w = u + iv$ and F is a continuous function on ${\mathbb C}_z \times {\mathbb R}_u$, the following conditions are…
We first give a sufficient condition, issued from pluripotential theory, for an unbounded domain in the complex Euclidean space $\mathbb C^n$ to be Kobayashi hyperbolic. Then, we construct an example of a rigid pseudoconvex domain in…
We provide several equivalent characterizations of Kobayashi hyperbolicity in unbounded convex domains in terms of peak and anti-peak functions at infinity, affine lines, Bergman metric and iteration theory.
We construct families of convex domains that are biholomorphic to bounded domains, but not bounded convex domains. This is accomplished by finding an obstruction related to the Gromov hyperbolicity of the Kobayashi metric.
We give an explicit lower bound, in terms of the distance from the boundary, for the Kobayashi metric of a certain class of bounded pseudoconvex domains in $\mathbb{C}^n$ with $\mathcal{C}^2$-smooth boundary using the regularity theory for…
We prove that every bounded smooth domain of finite d'Angelo type in $\mathbb{C}^2$ endowed with the Kobayashi distance is Gromov hyperbolic and its Gromov boundary is canonically homeomorphic to the Euclidean boundary. We also show that…
In this paper we study the global geometry of the Kobayashi metric on "convex" sets. We provide new examples of non-Gromov hyperbolic domains in $\mathbb{C}^n$ of many kinds: pseudoconvex and non-pseudocon \newline -vex, bounded and…
We give a necessary complex geometric condition for a bounded smooth convex domain in Cn, endowed with the Kobayashi distance, to be Gromov hyperbolic. More precisely, we prove that if a smooth bounded convex domain contains an analytic…
After a study of the Kobayashi metrics on certain scaled domains, we show the stabilities of the infinitesimal Kobayashi metrics and the integrated distances in different scaling processes. As an application, we prove that bounded…
We present different constructions of abstract boundaries for bounded complete (Kobayashi) hyperbolic domains in ${\mathbb C}^d$, $d \geq 1$. These constructions essentially come from the geometric theory of metric spaces. We also present,…
We study the completeness of a metric which is related to the Bergman metric of a bounded domain. We provide a criterion for its completeness in the spirit of the Kobayashi criterion for the completeness of the Bergman metric. In particular…
We prove that every bounded strictly $J$-convex region equipped with the Kobayashi metric is hyperbolic in the sense of Gromov. We apply this result to the study of the dynamics of pseudo-holomorphic maps.
In this paper, we construct a pseudoconvex domain in $\mathbb C^3$ where the Kobayashi metric does not blow up at a rate of one over distance to the boundary in the normal direction.
The second named author and David Kalaj introduced a pseudometric on any domain in the real Euclidean space $\mathbb R^n$, $n\ge 3$, defined in terms of conformal harmonic discs, by analogy with Kobayashi's pseudometric on complex…
In this paper, we obtain a more precise estimate of Catlin-type distance for smoothly bounded pseudoconvex domain of finite type in $\mathbb{C}^2$. As an application, we get an alternative proof of the Gromov hyperbolicity of this domain…
In this paper we give an local estimate for the Kobayashi distance on a bounded convex domain of finite type, which relates to a local pseudodistance near the boundary. The estimate is precise up to a bounded additive term. Also we conclude…
We give two new elementary proofs of the complete Kobayashi hyperbolicity of the twice-punctured complex plane. We also present an extremely short proof that bounded domains are complete Kobayashi hyperbolic. Our proofs rely neither on the…
Nagano spaces are compact symmetric spaces that admit large transformation groups. They include for instance all the Grassmannians and the Einstein Universes. In this paper, we study a Kobayashi-type pseudometric on domains in real-type…
In this paper, we construct unbounded domains in $\C^n$ ($n\geq 2$), whose Bergman spaces are nontrivial and finite-dimensional. We further show that the Bergman metrics on these domains have positive constant sectional curvature equal to…
The aim of this study is to understand to what extent a 1-convex domain with Levi-flat boundary is capable of holomorphic functions with slow growth. This paper discusses a typical example of such domain, the space of all the geodesic…
