A relatively polynomially convex subset $V$ of a domain $\Omega$ has the extension property if for every polynomial $p$ there is a bounded holomorphic function $\phi$ on $\Omega$ that agrees with $p$ on $V$ and whose $H^\infty$ norm on…
A multiple-valued function $f:X\to {\bf Q}_Q(Y)$ is essentially a rule assigning $Q$ unordered and non necessarily distinct elements of $Y$ to each element of $X$. We study the Lipschitz extension problem in this context by using two…
In this mostly expository article, we give streamlined proofs of several well-known Lipschitz extension theorems. We pay special attention to obtaining statements with explicit expressions for the extension constants. One of our main…
In this article, we prove that if $X$ is a complex manifold of dimension $n\geq 4$ such that there exists a $q$-convex with corners function $f\in F_{q}(X)$, then every holomorphic line bundle over $\{f>c\}$ extends uniquely to $X$ if…
We consider a global, nonlinear version of the Whitney extension problem for manifold-valued smooth functions on closed domains $C$, with non-smooth boundary, in possibly non-compact manifolds. Assuming $C$ is a submanifold with corners, or…
We investigate the local regularity of pointed spacetimes, that is, time-oriented Lorentzian manifolds in which a point and a future-oriented, unit timelike vector (an observer) are selected. Our main result covers the class of Einstein…
The subject of limit curve theorems in Lorentzian geometry is reviewed. A general limit curve theorem is formulated which includes the case of converging curves with endpoints and the case in which the limit points assigned since the…
We consider three uniqueness theorems: one from the theory of meromorphic functions, another one from asymptotic combinatorics, and the third one about representations of the infinite symmetric group. The first theorem establishes the…
In this note, we characterize the sharp boundary condition such that the fractional harmonic extensions with H\"older regularity up to the boundary is globally H\"older continuous. The proofs are based on estimates of fractional harmonic…
The problem is considered as to whether a monotone function defined on a subset P of a Euclidean space can be strictly monotonically extended to the whole space. It is proved that this is the case if and only if the function is {\em…
Let $X$ be a normed space of a finite dimension at least two, and $C\subsetneq X$ a closed convex set with nonempty interior. We are interested in extending Lipschitz quasiconvex functions on $C$ to quasiconvex functions on $X$. We show…
A local system H on a complex manifold M can be viewed in two ways--either as a locally free sheaf, or as a union of covering spaces T = T(H). When M is an open set in a bigger manifold, the local system will generally not extend, because…
Given a metrically complete Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ with smooth nonempty boundary and assuming that one of its curvatures is subject to a certain bound, we address the problem of whether it is possibile to realize $(M,g)$ as a domain…
In this work, we seek characterizations of global hyperbolicity in smooth Lorentzian manifolds that do not rely on the manifold topology and that are inspired by metric geometry. In particular, strong causality is not assumed, so part of…
We address the question of when a covering of the boundary of a surface can be extended to a covering of the surface (equivalently: when is there a branched cover with a prescribed monodromy). If such an extension is possible, when can the…
This paper looks at the splitting problem for globally hyperbolic spacetimes with timelike Ricci curvature bounded below containing a (spacelike, acausal, future causally complete) hypersurface with mean curvature bounded from above. For…
A rather complete investigation of anisotropic Bessel potential, Besov, and H\"older spaces on cylinders over (possibly) noncompact Riemannian manifolds with boundary is carried out. The geometry of the underlying manifold near its 'ends'…
Let $M$ be a compact metric space and $X = M^{\mathbb{N}}$, we consider a set of admissible sequences $X_{A, I} \subset X$ determined by a continuous admissibility function $A : M \times M \to \mathbb{R}$ and a compact set $I \subset…
We present a systematic study of causality theory on Lorentzian manifolds with continuous metrics. Examples are given which show that some standard facts in smooth Lorentzian geometry, such as light-cones being hypersurfaces, are wrong when…
We discuss the global regularity of solutions $f$ to the Dirichlet problem for minimal graphs in the hyperbolic space when the boundary of the domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$ has a nonnegative mean curvature and prove an optimal…
