In this paper we study the rigidity of proper holomorphic maps $f\colon \Omega\to\Omega'$ between irreducible bounded symmetric domains $\Omega$ and $\Omega'$ with small rank differences: $2\leq \text{rank}(\Omega')<…
Let $D_{p,q}$ and $D_{p',q'}$ be irreducible bounded symmetric domains of the first kind with rank $q$ and $q'$, respectively and let $f:D_{p,q}\to D_{p',q'}$ be a proper holomorphic map that extends $C^2$ up to the boundary. In this paper…
We study proper holomorphic maps between bounded symmetric domains $D$ and $\Omega$. In particular, when $D$ and $\Omega$ are of the same rank $\ge 2$ such that all irreducible factors of $D$ are of rank $\ge 2$, we prove that any proper…
We prove that a proper holomorphic map between two bounded symmetric domains of the same dimension, one of them being irreducible, is a biholomorphism. Our methods allow us to give a single, all-encompassing argument that unifies the…
We introduce the concept of orthogonal structure on complex Grassmannians. Based on this structure, we define the notion of orthogonal mappings. This class of maps generalizes holomorphic maps between the Shilov boundaries of type-I bounded…
Let $X, Y$ be smooth algebraic varieties of the same dimension. Let $f, g : X \to Y$ be finite polynomial mappings. We say that $f, g$ are equivalent if there exists a regular automorphism $\Phi \in Aut(X)$ such that $f = g\circ \Phi$. Of…
We prove rigidity results for holomorphic proper maps from the complex unit ball $\mathbb{B}^n$ to the Type IV bounded symmetric domain $D^{IV}_m$ where $n \geq 4, n+1\leq m \leq 2n-3$. In addition, a classification result is established…
In this paper, we prove a rigidity result for proper holomorphic maps between unit balls that have many symmetries and which extend to H\"older continuous maps on the boundary, with H\"older exponent strictly greater than 1/2.
In the study of holomorphic maps, the term "rigidity" refers to certain types of results that give us very specific information about a general class of holomorphic maps owing to the geometry of their domains or target spaces. Under this…
Our first main result gives assumptions guaranteeing that proper holomorphic maps between Cartan type I bounded symmetric domains have simple block matrix shape, answering positively a question of Mok. The proof is based on the second main…
We prove a boundary version of the open mapping theorem for holomorphic maps between strongly pseudoconvex domains. That is, we prove that the local image of a holomorphic map $f:D\to D'$ close to a boundary regular contact point $p\in \de…
In this note, we prove a rigidity result for proper holomorphic maps between unit balls that have many symmetries and which extend to $\mathcal{C}^2$-smooth maps on the boundary.
A holomorphic mapping $H$ between two real-analytic CR manifolds $M$ and $M'$ is said to be locally rigid if any other holomorphic map $F\colon M \to M'$ which is close enough to $H$ is obtained by composing $H$ with suitable automorphisms…
The Fock-Bargmann-Hartogs domain $D_{n,m}(\mu)$ ($\mu>0$) in $\mathbf{C}^{n+m}$ is defined by the inequality $\|w\|^2<e^{-\mu\|z\|^2},$ where $(z,w)\in \mathbf{C}^n\times \mathbf{C}^m$, which is an unbounded non-hyperbolic domain in…
Let D be a domain in C^n with smooth boundary, of finite 1-type at a point p in the boundary and such that the closure of D has a basis of Stein Runge neighborhoods. Assume that there exists an analytic disc which intersects the closure of…
We show that the structure of proper holomorphic maps between the $n$-fold symmetric products, $n\geq 2$, of a pair of non-compact Riemann surfaces $X$ and $Y$, provided these are reasonably nice, is very rigid. Specifically, any such map…
We characterize the existence of proper holomorphic mappings in the special class of bounded $(1,2,...,n)$-balanced domains in $\mathbb{C}^n$, called the symmetrized ellipsoids. Using this result we conclude that there are no non-trivial…
We study the rigidity of maps between bounded symmetric domains that preserve the Carath\'eodory/Kobayashi distance. We show that such maps are only possible when the rank of the co-domain is at least as great as that of the domain. When…
