The partition function of an N=2 gauge theory in the Omega-background satisfies, for generic value of the parameter beta=-eps_1/eps_2, the, in general extended, but otherwise beta-independent, holomorphic anomaly equation of special…

We prove some stability results for certain classes of C*-algebras. We prove that whenever $A$ is a finite-dimensional C*-algebra, $B$ is a C*-algebra and $\phi\colon A\to B$ is approximately a $^*$-homomorphism then there is an actual…

We prove the following dichotomy: if $n=2,3$ and $f\in C^1(\mathbb{S}^{n+1},\mathbb{S}^n)$ is not homotopic to a constant map, then there is an open set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{S}^{n+1}$ such that $\mathrm{rank}\, df=n$ on $\Omega$ and…

We prove two density theorems for quadrature domains in $\mathbb{C}^n$, $n \geq 2$. It is shown that quadrature domains are dense in the class of all product domains of the form $D \times \Omega$, where $D \subset \mathbb{C}^{n-1}$ is a…

We prove that the set of leaves of a holomorphic lamination of codimension one that are non-transversal to a germ of a holomorphic map is discrete.

Let $h:X \to Y$ be a homeomorphism between hyperbolic surfaces with finite topology. If $h$ is homotopic to a holomorphic map, then every closed geodesic in $X$ is at least as long as the corresponding geodesic in $Y$, by the Schwarz Lemma.…

There is a belief that the Ehrenfest theorem holds true universally. We demonstrate that for a classically nonrelativistic particle constrained on an $N-1$ ($N\geq 2$) curved hypersurface embedded in $N$ flat space, the theorem breaks down.

Let $\Sigma$ be a compact surface equipped with an area form. There is an long standing open question by Katok, which, in particular, asks whether every entropy-zero Hamiltonian diffeomorphism of a surface lies in the $C^0$-closure of the…

Let $\Omega$ be a convex domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$ and $\varphi$ a convex function on $\Omega$. We prove that $\log{K_{\Omega,\varphi}(z)}$ is a convex function (might be identically $-\infty$) on $\Omega$, where $K_{\Omega,\varphi}$ is the…

Let $\Omega$ be a smooth bounded domain in ${\mathbb R}^n$, $0\textless{}s\textless{}\infty$ and $1\le p\textless{}\infty$. We prove that $C^\infty(\overline\Omega\, ; {\mathbb S}^1)$ is dense in $W^{s,p}(\Omega ; {\mathbb S}^1)$ except…

We extend a well-known result, about the unit ball, by H. Alexander to a class of balanced domains in $\mathbb{C}^n, \ n > 1$. Specifically: we prove that any proper holomorphic self-map of a certain type of balanced, finite-type domain in…

A foliation $(M,\mathcal{F})$ is said to be $2$--calibrated if it admits a closed 2-form $\omega$ making each leaf symplectic. By using approximately holomorphic techniques, a sequence $W_k$ of $2$--calibrated submanifolds of…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^{N+1}$ with a connected $C^{2,\epsilon}$ ($\epsilon\in(0,1)$) boundary. We show that, if the following overdetermined elliptic problem \begin{equation} -\Delta u=\alpha u\,\,…

Reflections from hypersurfaces act by symplectomorphisms on the space of oriented lines with respect to the canonical symplectic form. We consider an arbitrary $C^{\infty}$-smooth hypersurface $\gamma\subset\mathbb R^{n+1}$ that is either a…

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 prove an Alexander type theorem for the spectral unit ball $\Omega_n$ showing that there are no non-trivial proper holomorphic mappings in $\Omega_n$, $n\geq 2$.

An n-homomorphism between algebras is a linear map $\phi : A \to B$ such that $\phi(a_1 ... a_n) = \phi(a_1)... \phi(a_n)$ for all elements $a_1, >..., a_n \in A.$ Every homomorphism is an n-homomorphism, for all n >= 2, but the converse is…

Let $\Omega$ be a domain with noncompact boundary. It is known that the Helmholtz decomposition is not always valid in $L^p(\Omega)$ except for the energy space $L^2 (\Omega)$. In this paper we consider a typical unbounded domain whose…

The envelope of holomorphy of an arbitrary domain in a two-dimensional Stein manifold is identified with a connected component of the set of equivalence classes of analytic discs immersed into the Stein manifold with boundary in the domain.…

In this paper, we study meromorphic functions on a domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{C}$ whose image has finite spherical area, counted with multiplicity. The paper is composed of two parts. In the first part, we show that the limit of a…
