In this paper, we show that the $L^2$-optimal condition implies the $L^2$-divisibility of $L^2$-integrable holomorphic functions. As an application, we offer a new characterization of bounded $L^2$-domains of holomorphy with null thin…

In this paper we analyze the singular set in the Stefan problem and prove the following results: - The singular set has parabolic Hausdorff dimension at most $n-1$. - The solution admits a $C^\infty$-expansion at all singular points, up to…

We study the image and the singularity subset of a general pseudoholomorphic map. We show that the image of a proper pseudoholomorphic map is a pseudoholomorphic subvariety when the dimension of either the domain or target is four. We also…

In this paper we show that every complex hypersurface $A$ in a Stein manifold $X$ with $H^2(X;\mathbb Z)=0$ is the divisor of a holomorphic function $f$ on $X$ whose critical points are precisely the singular points of $A$. A similar result…

A flag domain $D$ is an open orbit of a real form $G_0$ in a flag manifold $Z=G/P$ of its complexification. If $D$ is holomorphically convex, then, since it is a product of a Hermitian symmetric space of bounded type and a compact flag…

In this paper we prove results on the existence and homotopy classification of holomorphic submersions from Stein manifolds to other complex manifolds. We say that a complex manifold Y satisfies Property S_n for some integer n bigger or…

In this paper we consider the open complement U of a hypersurface Y=V(a) in an affine scheme X. We study the relations between the affineness of U, the intersection of Y with closed subschemes, the property that every closed surface in U is…

Loi and Piergallini showed that a smooth compact, connected $4$-manifold $X$ with boundary admits a Stein structure if and only if $X$ is a simple branched cover of a $4$-disk $D^4$ branched along a positive braided surface $S$ in a bidisk…

Profinite algebras are the residually finite compact algebras; their underlying topological spaces are Stone spaces. We extend the theory of profinite algebras to a more general setting of Stone topological algebras. We introduce Stone…

We construct all possible noncommutative deformations of a Kleinian singularity ${\mathbb C}^2/\Gamma$ of type $D_n$ in terms of generators and relations, and solve the problem of when two deformations are isomorphic. We prove that all…

The scope of the paper is threefold. First, we build on recent work by Hayden to compute Hedden's tau-invariant $\tau_{\xi}(L)$ in the case when $\xi$ is a Stein fillable contact structure on a rational homology sphere, and $L$ is a…

The dimension datum of a closed subgroup of a compact Lie group is the sequence of invariant dimensions of irreducible representations by restriction. In this article we classify closed connected subgroups with equal dimension data or…

In this paper we find big Euclidean domains in complex manifolds. We consider open neighbourhoods of sets of the form $K\cup M$ in a complex manifold $X$, where $K$ is a compact $\mathscr O(U)$-convex set in an open Stein neighbourhood $U$…

A topological space $X$ is called submaximal if every dense subset of $X$ is open. In this paper, we show that if $\beta X$, the Stone-\v{C}ech compactification of $X$, is a submaximal space, then $X$ is a compact space and hence $\beta…

We prove the following theorem characterizing Du Bois singularities. Suppose that $Y$ is smooth and that $X$ is a reduced closed subscheme. Let $\pi : \tld Y \to Y$ be a log resolution of $X$ in $Y$ that is an isomorphism outside of $X$. If…

Let X be the moduli space of SL(n,C), SU(n), GL(n,C), or U(n)-valued representations of a rank r free group. We classify the algebraic singular stratification of X. This comes down to showing that the singular locus corresponds exactly to…

Let $X$ be a hypersurface with isolated singularities defined by $f$ in ${\bf P^{n+1}}$ with $n>1$. The difference ${\rm def}(X):=h^{n+1}(X)-h^{n-1}(X)$ is called the defect of $X$ (for self-duality of the cohomology of $X$). It is known…

This paper is about the integrability of complex vector fields in dimension three in a neighborhood of a singular point. More precisely, we study the existence of holomorphic first integrals for isolated singularities of holomorphic vector…

Let $X, Y$ be two complex manifolds of dimension 1 which are countable at infinity, let $D\subset X,$ $ G\subset Y$ be two open sets, let $A$ (resp. $B$) be a subset of $\partial D$ (resp. $\partial G$), and let $W$ be the 2-fold cross…

Let X be a complex projective variety of dimension n with only isolated normal singularities. In this paper we prove, using mixed Hodge theory, that if the link of each singular point of X is (n-2)-connected, then X is a formal topological…
