We study the rigidity of maps between bounded symmetric domains that preserve the Carath\'eodory/Kobayashi distance. We show that such maps are only possible when the rank of the co-domain is at least as great as that of the domain. When…
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 give an explicit lower bound, in terms of the distance from the boundary, for the Kobayashi metric of a certain class of bounded pseudoconvex domains in $\mathbb{C}^n$ with $\mathcal{C}^2$-smooth boundary using the regularity theory for…
We examine Euclidean plane domains with their hyperbolic or quasihyperbolic distance. We prove that the associated metric spaces are quasisymmetrically equivalent if and only if they are bi-Lipschitz equivalent. On the other hand, for…
We prove the non-hyperbolicity of the Kobayashi distance for $\mathcal{C}^{1,1}$-smooth convex domains in $\mathbb{C}^{2}$ which contain an analytic disc in the boundary or have a point of infinite type with rotation symmetry. Moreover,…
We give two new elementary proofs of the complete Kobayashi hyperbolicity of the twice-punctured complex plane. We also present an extremely short proof that bounded domains are complete Kobayashi hyperbolic. Our proofs rely neither on the…
We endow the space of projective filling geodesic currents on a closed hyperbolic surface with a natural asymmetric metric extending Thurston's asymmetric metric on Teichm\"uller space, as well as analogous metrics arising from Hitchin…
Let $D\subset \mathbb C^n$ be a bounded domain. A pair of distinct boundary points $\{p,q\}$ of $D$ has the visibility property provided there exist a compact subset $K_{p,q}\subset D$ and open neighborhoods $U_p$ of $p$ and $U_q$ of $q$,…
In this paper we introduce a notion of the Gromov-Hausdorff distance with boundary, denoted by $d_{GHB}$, to construct a framework of convergence of noncomplete metric spaces. We show that a class of bounded $A$-uniform spaces with diameter…
We give an example of a parabolic holomorphic self-map $f$ of the unit ball $\mathbb B^2\subset \mathbb C^2$ whose canonical Kobayashi hyperbolic semi-model is given by an elliptic automorphism of the disc $\mathbb D\subset \mathbb C$,…
We improve existing lower bounds of the hyperbolic dimension for meromophic functions that have a logarithmic tract {\Omega} which is a H\"older domain. These bounds are given in terms of the fractal behavior, measured with integral means,…
We characterize Gromov hyperbolicity of the quasihyperbolic metric space (\Omega,k) by geometric properties of the Ahlfors regular length metric measure space (\Omega,d,\mu). The characterizing properties are called the Gehring--Hayman…
A real form $G$ of a complex semisimple Lie group $G^C$ has only finitely many orbits in any given $G^C$-flag manifold $Z=G^C/Q$. The complex geometry of these orbits is of interest, e.g., for the associated representation theory. The open…
We prove that for a domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, being $(\epsilon,\delta)$ in the sense of Jones is equivalent to being an extension domain for bmo$(\Omega)$, the nonhonomogeneous version of the space of function of bounded mean…
We study higher-order compact Sobolev embeddings on a domain $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb R^n$ endowed with a probability measure $\nu$ and satisfying certain isoperimetric inequality. Given $m\in \mathbb N$, we present a condition on a pair…
In this paper we study the geometry and the topology of unbounded domains in the Hyperbolic Space $\mathbb{H} ^n$ supporting a bounded positive solution to an overdetermined elliptic problem. Under suitable conditions on the elliptic…
For a non-empty compact set $E$ in a proper subdomain $\Omega$ of the complex plane, we denote the diameter of $E$ and the distance from $E$ to the boundary of $\Omega$ by $d(E)$ and $d(E,\partial\Omega),$ respectively. The quantity…
Universal upper bounds for the Kobayashi and quasi-hyperbolic distances near Dini-smooth boundary points of domains in $\C^n$ and $\R^n,$ respectively, are obtained.
In this paper, motivated by the work of Bonk, Heinonen, and Koskela (Asterisque, 2001), we consider the problem of the equivalence of the Gromov boundary and Euclidean boundary. Our strategy to study this problem comes from the recent work…
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…
