The purpose of this article is towards systematically characterizing (holomorphic) retracts of domains of holomorphy; to begin with, bounded balanced pseudoconvex domains $B \subset \mathbb{C}^N$. Specifically, we show that every retract of…
In this paper, finite type domains with hyperbolic orbit accumulation points are studied. We prove, in case of $\mathbb{C}^2$, it has to be a (global) pseudoconvex domain, after an assumption of boundary regularity. Moreover, one of the…
Given a hyperbolic domain, the nearest point retraction is a conformally natural homotopy equivalence from the domain to the boundary of the convex core of its complement. Marden and Markovic showed that if the domain is uniformly perfect,…
We study the hyperbolicity of singular quotients of bounded symmetric domains. We give effective criteria for such quotients to satisfy Green-Griffiths-Lang's conjectures in both analytic and algebraic settings. As an application, we show…
In this paper, we distinguish two levels for the plane-filling property. We consider a simple and a strong one. In this paper, we give the construction which proves that the simple plane-filling property also holds for the hyperbolic plane.…
We prove that if $\Omega$ is a simply connected quadrature domain for a distribution with compact support and the infinity point belongs the boundary, then the boundary has an asymptotic curve that is either a straight line or a parabola or…
We prove that the complement of a very generic curve of degree $d$ at least equal to 15 in the projective plane is hyperbolic in the sens of Kobayashi (here, the terminology ``very generic'' refers to complements of countable unions of…
We prove the nontangential asymptotic limits of the Bergman canonical invariant, Ricci and Scalar curvatures of the Bergman metric, as well as the Kobayashi--Fuks metric, at exponentially flat infinite type boundary points of smooth bounded…
We study the boundaries of non-univalent simply connected Baker domains of transcendental maps (both entire and meromorphic), of hyperbolic and simply parabolic type. We prove non-ergodicity and non-recurrence for the boundary map, and…
We prove that in a strongly pseudoconvex domain with smooth boundary, then the length of a geodesic for the Kobayashi-Royden infinitesimal metric between two points is bounded by a constant multiple of the Euclidean distance between the…
This article generalizes the result of Katzarkov and Ramachandran from algebraic surfaces to K\"ahler surfaces. We follow their argument to prove the holomorphic convexity of a reductive Galois covering over a compact K\"ahler surface which…
The combinatorial structure of the realization space of the euqilateral pentagon linkage is closely related to a tiling of the hyperbolic plane by right-angled pentagons. In this correspondence lower dimensional faces of the tiling…
It is shown that any two-dimensional spacetimes with compact Cauchy surfaces can be causally isomorphically imbedded into the two-dimensional Einstein's static universe. Also, it is shown that any two-dimensional globally hyperbolic…
We investigate on the existence of smooth complete hypersurface with prescribed Weingarten curvature and asymptotic boundary at infinity in hyperbolic space under the assumption that there exists an asymptotic subsolution. We give an…
These are lecture notes of a course held at IMPA, Rio de Janiero, in september 2010: the purpose was to present recent results on Kobayashi hyperbolicity in complex geometry. Our ultimate goal is to describe the results obtained on…
D=11 supergravity possesses D=5 Calabi-Yau compactified solutions that may be identified with the vacua of the Horava-Witten orbifold construction for M--theory/heterotic duality. The simplest of these solutions naturally involves two…
In this article we study the injective Kobayashi metric on complex surfaces.
We prove several statements about arithmetic hyperbolicity of certain blow-up varieties. As a corollary we obtain multiple examples of simply connected quasi-projective varieties that are pseudo-arithmetically hyperbolic. This generalizes…
We deliver examples of non-Gromov hyperbolic tube domains with convex bases (equipped with the Kobayashi distance). This is shown by providing a criterion on non-Gromov hyperbolicity of (non-smooth) domains.The results show the similarity…
We present two methods of constructing low degree Kobayashi hyperbolic hypersurfaces in the projective space: the projection method and the deformation method. The talk is based on joint works of the speaker with B. Shiffman and C.…
