This thesis investigates cusp cross-sections of arithmetic real, complex, and quaternionic hyperbolic $n$--orbifolds. We give a smooth classification of these submanifolds and analyze their induced geometry. One of the primary tools is a…
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…
The paper is a contribution of the conjecture of Kobayashi that the complement of a generic plain curve of degree at least five is hyperbolic. The main result is that the complement of a generic configuration of three quadrics is hyperbolic…
In this note, we will explain the connection between the Seven Circles Theorem and hyperbolic geometry, then prove a stronger result about hyperbolic geometry hexagons which implies the Seven Circles Theorem as a special case.
We present two versions of the Egorov theorem for orbifolds. The first one is a straightforward extension of the classical theorem for smooth manifolds. The second one considers an orbifold as a singular manifold, the orbit space of a Lie…
In this paper we study the global geometry of the Kobayashi metric on domains in complex Euclidean space. We are particularly interested in developing necessary and sufficient conditions for the Kobayashi metric to be Gromov hyperbolic. For…
We consider the multidimensional inverse problem of determining the conductivity coefficient of a hyperbolic equation in an infinite cylindrical domain, from a single boundary observation of the solution. We prove H{\"o}lder stability with…
We construct spaces of 1-dimensional supersymmetric Euclidean field theories and show that they represent real or complex K-theory. A noteworthy feature of our bordism category is that the identity bordism of a point is connected to…
Let $O$ be a closed $n$-dimensional arithmetic (real or complex) hyperbolic orbifold. We show that the diameter of $O$ is bounded above by $$\frac{c_1\log vol(O) + c_2}{h(O)},$$ where $h(O)$ is the Cheeger constant of $O$, $vol(O)$ is its…
We construct an unbounded strictly pseudoconvex Kobayashi hyperbolic and complete domain in $\mathbb{C}^2$, which also possesses complete Bergman metric, but has no nonconstant bounded holomorphic functions.
The purpose of this article is to consider two themes both of which emanate from and involve the Kobayashi and the Carath\'eodory metric. First we study the biholomorphic invariant introduced by B. Fridman on strongly pseudoconvex domains,…
We introduce the notion of topological hyperbolicity to characterize the largeness of the topological fundamental group of a complex variety. Inspired by the Shafarevich conjecture, we propose to study the topological hyperbolicity of…
For a hyperbolic $3$-orbifold with underlying space the $3$-sphere, we obtain a lower bound on its volume in the case that it contains an essential $2$-suborbifold with underlying space the $2$-sphere with four cone points. Our techniques…
In this note, we establish the dihedral rigidity phenomenon for a collection of parabolic polyhedrons enclosed by horospheres in hyperbolic manifolds, extending Gromov's comparison theory to metrics with negative scalar curvature lower…
Bowditch showed that a one-ended hyperbolic group which is not a triangle group splits over a two-ended group if and only if its boundary has a local cut point. As a corollary one obtains that splittings of hyperbolic groups over two-ended…
We prove an hyperbolic analogue of the Bloch-Ochiai theorem about the Zariski closure of holomorphic curves in abelian varieties. We consider the case of non compact Shimura varieties completing the proof of the result for all Shimura…
We prove a comparison theorem for certain types of polyhedra in a 3-manifold with its scalar curvature bounded below by $-6$. The result confirms in some cases the Gromov dihedral rigidity conjecture in hyperbolic $3$-space.
This is a recent conference report on the Kobayashi Problem on hyperbolicity of generic projective hypersurfaces. As an appendix, a (non-updated) author's survey article of 1992 on the same subject, published in an edition with a limited…
We study the metric compactification of a Kobayashi hyperbolic complex manifold \(\mathcal{X} \) equipped with the Kobayashi distance \( \mathsf{k}_{\mathcal{X}} \). We show that this compactification is genuine -- i.e., \( \mathcal{X} \)…
This is a short survey on finite-volume hyperbolic four-manifolds. We describe some general theorems and focus on the concrete examples that we found in the literature. The paper contains no new result.
