The lack of a uniformization theorem in several complex variables leads to a desire to classify all of the simply connected domains. We use established computational methods and a localization technique to generalize a recently-published…

In this paper, we give sufficient conditions for Cauchy-completeness of Kobayashi hyperbolic domains in complex manifolds. The first result gives a sufficient condition for completeness for relatively compact domains in several large…

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…

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…

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…

We give a diameter bound for fundamental domains for isometric actions of the fundamental group of a closed hyperbolic surface on a delta-hyperbolic space, where the bound depends on the hyperbolicity constant delta, the genus of the…

A circle domain $\Omega$ in the Riemann sphere is conformally rigid if every conformal map from $\Omega$ onto another circle domain is the restriction of a M\"{o}bius transformation. We show that circle domains satisfying a certain…

We study the Kobayashi pseudodistance for orbifolds, proving an orbifold version of Brody's theorem and classifying which one-dimensional orbifolds are hyperbolic.

In this paper, we prove that in any projective manifold, the complements of general hypersurfaces of sufficiently large degree are Kobayashi hyperbolic. We also provide an effective lower bound on the degree. This confirms a conjecture by…

We prove that a strongly pseudoconvex domain with noncompact group of Kobayashi/Royden metric isometries must be biholomorphic to the unit ball.

We show that Worm domains are not Gromov hyperbolic with respect to the Kobayashi distance.

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…

In this paper we study when the Kobayashi distance on a Kobayashi hyperbolic domain has certain visibility properties, with a focus on unbounded domains. "Visibility" in this context is reminiscent of visibility, seen in negatively curved…

Let $X$ be a closed, $1$-dimensional, complex subvariety of $\CC^2$ and let $\ol{\BB}$ be a closed ball in $\CC^2 - X$. Then there exists a Fatou-Bieberbach domain $\Omega$ with $X \subseteq \Omega \subseteq \CC^2 - \ol{\BB}$ and a…

We prove that a cyclic cover of a smooth complex projective variety is Brody hyperbolic if its branch divisor is a generic small deformation of a large enough multiple of a Brody hyperbolic base-point-free ample divisor. We also show the…

We prove that the Koebe circle domain conjecture is equivalent to the Weyl type problem that every complete hyperbolic surface of genus zero is isometric to the boundary of the hyperbolic convex hull of the complement of a circle domain. It…

Looking to the fundamental domains of space groups we can investigate in which space they can be realized. If this space is hyperbolic, then the corresponding space group is also hyperbolic. In addition to the usual methods for…

The paper is a contribution to the conjecture of Kobayashi that the complement of a generic curve in the projective plane is hyperbolic, provided the degree is at least five. Previously the authors treated the cases of two quadrics and a…

Consider a holomorphic map $F: D \to G$ between two domains in ${\mathbb C}^N$. Let $\mathcal F$ denote a family of geodesics for the Kobayashi distance, such that $F$ acts as an isometry on each element of $\mathcal F$. This paper is…

A projective manifold is algebraically hyperbolic if the degree of any curve is bounded from above by its genus times a constant, which is independent from the curve. This is a property which follows from Kobayashi hyperbolicity. We prove…
