We show that every formal embedding sending a real-analytic strongly pseudoconvex hypersurface in $M\subset \C^N$ into another such hypersurface in $M'\subset \C^{N+1}$ is convergent. More generally, if $M$ and $M'$ are merely…

We investigate the problem of holomorphic algebraizibility for real hypersurfaces in complex space. We introduce a new invariant of a (real-analytic) Levi-nondegenerate hypersurface called {\em the jet transcendence degree}. Using this…

It is proved that dicritical singularities of real analytic Levi-flat sets coincide with the set of Segre degenerate points.

In this paper we study real hypersurfaces in the complex quadric space $Q^m$ whose structure Jacobi operator commutes with their structure tensor field. We show that the Reeb curvature $\alpha$ of such hypersurfaces is constant and if…

We call a real algebraic hypersurface in $(\mathbb{C}^*)^n$ simplicial if it is given by a real Laurent polynomial in $n$-variables that has exactly $n+1$ monomials with non-zero coefficients and such that the convex hull in $\mathbb{R}^n$…

We consider hypersurfaces of finite type in a direct product space ${\mathbb R}^2 \times {\mathbb R}^2$, which are analogues to real hypersurfaces of finite type in ${\mathbb C}^2$. We shall consider separately the cases where such…

It is shown that a domain in $\C^n$ which is locally convex and has $\mathcal C^1$-smooth Levi-flat boundary is locally linearly equivalent to a Cartesian product of a planar domain and $\C^{n-1}.$ This result does not extend to the case…

Given a complete non-compact surface embedded in R^3, we consider the Dirichlet Laplacian in a layer of constant width about the surface. Using an intrinsic approach to the layer geometry, we generalise the spectral results of an original…

Let $F(z)=\mathcal{R}e(P(z)) + h.o.t$ be such that $M=(F=0)$ defines a germ of real analytic Levi-flat at $0\in\mathbb{C}^{n}$, $n\geq{2}$, where $P(z)$ is a homogeneous polynomial of degree $k$ with an isolated singularity at…

Let D_1 be a subdomain of D_2 in the complex plane CC. Under very mild conditions on D_2 we show that there exist holomorphic functions f, defined on D_1 with the property that $f$ is nowhere extendible across the boundary of D_1, while the…

We study/construct (proper and non-proper) Morse functions on complete Riemannian manifolds, the level hypersurfaces of which have positive mean curvatures at all non-critical points. We show, for instance, that if a complete Rieannin…

We characterise the profile curves of non-CMC biconservative rotational hypersurfaces of space forms $N^n(\rho)$ as $p$-elastic curves, for a suitable rational number $p\in[1/4,1)$ which depends on the dimension $n$ of the ambient space.…

In this paper we construct a large class of new normal forms for Levi-nondegenerate real hypersurfaces in complex spaces. We adopt a general approach illustrating why these normal forms are natural and which role is played by the celebrated…

We describe a method to construct hypersurfaces of the complex affine $n$-space with isomorphic $\mathbb{C}^*$-cylinders. Among these hypersurfaces, we find new explicit counterexamples to the Laurent Cancellation Problem, i.e.…

We construct a non-Kummer projective K3 surface $X$ which admits compact Levi-flats by holomorphically patching two open complex surfaces obtained as the complements of tubular neighborhoods of elliptic curves embedded in blow-ups of the…

We consider an alternative approach to a fundamental CR invariant - the Catlin multitype. It is applied to a general smooth hypersurface in $\mathbbC^{n+1}$, not necessarily pseudoconvex. Using this approach, we prove biholomorphic…

We provide regularity results for CR-maps between real hypersurfaces in complex spaces of different dimension with a Levi-degenerate target. We address both the real-analytic and the smooth case. Our results allow immediate applications to…

In our recent article (to appear in the Journal of Differential Geometry in 2016) we studied tube hypersurfaces in ${\mathbb C}^3$ that are 2-nondegenerate and uniformly Levi degenerate of rank 1. In particular, we discovered that for the…

Complex Ricci-flat (i.e., Calabi-Yau) hypersurfaces in spaces admitting a maximal (toric) $U(1)^n$ gauge symmetry of general type (encoded by certain non-convex and multi-layered multitopes) may degenerate, but can be smoothed by rational…

This is a continuation of our previous paper [14]. In [14], we introduced the first Aeppli-Chern class on compact complex manifolds, and proved that the $(1,1)$ curvature form of the Levi-Civita connection represents the first Aeppli-Chern…
