In this paper we introduce a new class of domains -- log-type convex domains, which have no boundary regularity assumptions. Then we will localize the Kobayashi metric in log-type convex subdomains. As an application, we prove a local…
In this paper, we prove that the general ellipsoid $D_P$ is holomorphically homogeneous regular provided that it is a $WB$-domain. Then, the uniform lower bound for the squeezing function near a $(P,r)$-extreme point is also given.

Large-scale nonconvex optimization problems are ubiquitous in modern machine learning, and among practitioners interested in solving them, Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) reigns supreme. We revisit the analysis of SGD in the nonconvex…
Let $D$ be a bounded domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$, $n\ge 1$. In this paper, we study two biholomorphic invariants on $D$, the Fridman invariant $e_D(z)$ and the squeezing function $s_D(z)$. More specifically, we study the following two…

This article improves on existing methods to estimate the spectral density of stationary and nonstationary time series assuming a Gaussian process prior. By optimising an appropriate eigendecomposition using a smoothing spline covariance…
In this paper we prove: if a bounded domain with $C^2$ boundary covers a manifold which has finite volume with respect to either the Bergman volume, the K\"ahler-Einstein volume, or the Kobayashi-Eisenman volume, then the domain is…
We consider proper holomorphic mappings of equidimensional pseudoconvex domains in complex Euclidean space, where both source and target can be represented as Cartesian products of smoothly bounded domains. It is shown that such mappings…
It is an observation due to J.J. Kohn that for a smooth bounded pseudoconvex domain D in $C^n$ there exists s>0 such that the dbar-Neumann operator on D maps $W^s_{(0,1)}(D)$ (the space of $(0,1)$-forms with coefficient functions in…
In this note we show the existence of Lagrangian barriers in a certain class of domains in $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$, including dual Lagrangian products and some ``sufficiently" round domains. Many of these results come as applications of the…
