Let $G$ be a complex simple direct limit group, specifically $SL(\infty;\mathbb{C})$, $SO(\infty;\mathbb{C})$ or $Sp(\infty;\mathbb{C})$. Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a (generalized) flag in $\mathbb{C}^\infty$. If $G$ is $SO(\infty;\mathbb{C})$ or…

It is shown that the cycle space of an arbitrary orbit of a non-Hermitian real form G in a flag manifold $Z=G^\mathbb C/Q$ of its complexification is naturally equivalent to a certain universal domain which depends only on G. This makes use…

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…

A flag domain of a real from $G_0$ of a complex semismiple Lie group $G$ is an open $G_0$-orbit $D$ in a (compact) $G$-flag manifold. In the usual way one reduces to the case where $G_0$ is simple. It is known that if $D$ possesses…

We prove that for a pseudoconvex domain of the form $\mathfrak{A} = \{(z, w) \in \mathbb C^2 : v > F(z, u)\}$, where $w = u + iv$ and F is a continuous function on ${\mathbb C}_z \times {\mathbb R}_u$, the following conditions are…

In this paper, we generalize the Kobayashi pseudo-distance to complex manifolds which admit holomorphic bracket generating distributions. The generalization is based on Chow's theorem in sub-Riemannian geometry. Let G be a linear semisimple…

Let $M$ be a complex manifold which admits an exhaustion by open subsets $M_j$ each of which is biholomorphic to a fixed domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb C^n$. The main question addressed here is to describe $M$ in terms of $\Omega$. Building…

Flag domains are open orbits of real forms $G_\mathbb{R}$ of complex reductive Lie supergroups $G$ in $G$-flag supermanifolds $Z = G/P$. This thesis discusses three topics from the theory of these flag domains: 1. Measurability(i.e.…

The lack of a uniformization theorem in several complex variables leads to a desire to classify all of the simply connected domains. We use established computational methods and a localization technique to generalize a recently-published…

Flag domains are open orbits of real semisimple Lie groups in flag manifolds of their complexifications. Certain group theoretically defined compact complex submanifolds, which are regarded as cycles, are of basic importance for their…
