We obtain a general sufficient condition on the geometry of possibly singular planar domains that guarantees global uniqueness for any weak solution to the Euler equations on them whose vorticity is bounded and initially constant near the…
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.
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…
The aim of this paper is to present a detailed and slightly modified version of the proof of the Lempert Theorem in the case of non-planar stronlgy linearly convex domains with C^2 smooth boundaries. The original Lempert's proof is…
It is shown that the optimal upper and lower bounds for the Kobayashi distance near $\mathcal C^{2,\alpha}$-smooth strongly pseudoconvex boundary points obtained in L. Kosinski, N. Nikolov, A.Y. Okten: "Precise estimates of invariant…
This paper establishes new degree bounds for Kobayashi hyperbolicity in dimension two. Our main results are: -- A very generic surface in $\mathbb{P}^3$ of degree at least $17$ is Kobayashi hyperbolic. -- The complement of a {\em generic}…
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,…
In this short note we consider very general bounded minimal homogeneous domains. Under certain natural additional conditions new sharp results on Bergman type analytic spaces in minimal bounded homogeneous domains are obtained. Domains we…
This article considers isometries of the Kobayashi and Carath\'{e}od-ory metrics on domains in $ \mathbf{C}^n $ and the extent to which they behave like holomorphic mappings. First we prove a metric version of Poincar\'{e}'s theorem about…
For a Kobayashi hyperbolic domain, Abate introduced the notion of small and big horospheres of a given radius at a boundary point with a pole. In this article, we investigate which domains have the property that closed big horospheres and…
We show that a domain that satisfies the visibility property with $\mathcal C^2$-smooth boundary is pseudoconvex.
The purpose of this article is to consider two themes both of which emanate from and involve the Kobayashi and the Carath\'eodory metric. First we study the biholomorphic invariant introduced by B. Fridman on strongly pseudoconvex domains,…
We consider the convergence of pointed multiply connected domains in the Caratheodory topology. Behaviour in the limit is largely determined by the properties of the simple closed hyperbolic geodesics which separate components of the…
The main objective of this paper is to show that balls under invariant metrics on hyperbolic planar domains are finitely-connected. As applications, we give new and transparent proofs of classical results on conformal mappings of planar…
In this paper we analyze the problem of the geodesic connectedness of subsets of Riemannian manifolds. By using variational methods, the geodesic connectedness of open domains (whose boundaries can be not differentiable and not convex) of a…
The possibility of making an optically large (many wavelengths in diameter) object appear invisible has been a subject of many recent studies. Exact invisibility scenarios for large (relative to the wavelength) objects involve…
In this paper we investigate the Gromov hyperbolicity of the classical Kobayashi and Hilbert metrics, and the recently introduced minimal metric. Using the linear isoperimetric inequality characterization of Gromov hyperbolicity, we show if…
We characterize the observability property (and, by duality, the controllability and the stabilization) of the wave equation on a Riemannian manifold $\Omega,$ with or without boundary, where the observation (or control) domain is…
These are the notes of a short course I gave in the school "Aspects m\'etriques et dynamiques en analyse complete", Lille, May 2015. The aim of this notes is to describe how to use a geometric structure (namely, the Kobayashi distance) to…
In this work we solve a couple of well known open problems related to the quasihyperbolic metric. In the case of planar domains, our first main result states that quasihyperbolic geodesics are unique in simply connected domains. As the…
