We construct hyperbolic groups with the following properties: The boundary of the group has big dimension, it is separated by a Cantor set and the group does not split. This shows that Bowditch's theorem that characterizes splittings of…
In the 1980s, M. J. Markowitz introduced a conformally invariant pseudodistance on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds, inspired by the Kobayashi metric in projective geometry. This construction relies on a distinguished class of parametrized…
This is essentially a survey paper in which we solve the global Cauchy problem on causal manifolds for hyperbolic systems of linear partial differential equations in the framework of hyperfunctions. Besides the classical Cauchy-Kowalevsky…
We study the hyperbolicity of the log variety $(\mathbb{P}^n, X)$, where $X$ is a very general hypersurface of degree $d\geq 2n+1$ (which is the bound predicted by the Kobayashi conjecture). Using a positivity result for the sheaf of…
We study a class of two dimensional partially hyperbolic systems, not necessarily skew products, trying to establish the germ of a general theory. To illustrate the scope of the theory, we apply our results to the case of fast-slow…
We use a combinatorial approximation of the hyperbolic plane to investigate properties of hyperbolic geometry such as exponential growth of perimeter and area of disks, and the linear isoperimetric inequality. This calculations give a…
We define the hyperbolic Yamabe flow and obtain some properties of its stationary solutions, namely, of hyperbolic Yamabe solitons. We consider immersed submanifolds as hyperbolic Yamabe solitons and prove that, under certain assumptions, a…
We consider complex Kobayashi-hyperbolic manifolds of dimension $n\ge 2$ for which the dimension of the group of holomorphic automorphisms is equal to $n^2-1$. We give a complete classification of such manifolds for $n\ge 3$ and discuss…
We offer a variant of a proof of a borderline Bourgain-Brezis Sobolev embedding theorem on $\mathbb{R}^n$. We use this idea to extend the result to real hyperbolic spaces $\mathbb{H}^n$.
We prove that a strongly pseudoconvex domain with noncompact group of Kobayashi/Royden metric isometries must be biholomorphic to the unit ball.
Recently, the visibility property of Kobayashi (almost) geodesics has been used to provide localizations of the Kobayashi distance. In this note, we provide sufficient growth conditions for the Kobayashi distance to obtain new strong…
Let $(M, \dr M)$ be a 3-manifold with incompressible boundary that admits a convex co-compact hyperbolic metric. We consider the hyperbolic metrics on $M$ such that $\dr M$ looks locally like a hyperideal polyhedron, and we characterize the…
We provide a sufficient condition for the continuous extension of isometries for the Kobayashi distance between bounded convex domains in complex Euclidean spaces having boundaries that are only slightly more regular than $\mathcal{C}^1$.…
In this work, we investigate the positivity of logarithmic and orbifold cotangent bundles along hyperplane arrangements in projective spaces. We show that a very interesting example given by Noguchi (as early as in 1986) can be pushed…
This survey article mainly addresses to graduate students and young researchers in complex geometry willing to enter the beautiful word of connections between curvature and Kobayashi hyperbolicity. It is a detailed account of a recent…
We discuss properties of complex algebraic orbifold groups, their characteristic varieties, and their abelian covers. In particular, we deal with the question of (quasi)-projectivity of orbifold groups. We also prove a structure theorem for…
We compute and analyse the moduli space of those real projective structures on a hyperbolic 3-orbifold that are modelled on a single ideal tetrahedron in projective space. Parameterisations are given in terms of classical invariants,…
We construct an elementary counterexample to the criterion for Kobayashi hyperbolicity for a class of tube domains in ${\mathbb C}^2$ proposed by J.-J. Loeb.
We review curvature-based hyperbolic forms of the evolution part of the Cauchy problem of General Relativity that we have obtained recently. We emphasize first order symmetrizable hyperbolic systems possessing only physical characteristics.
We study hyperbolic curves and their Jacobians over finite fields in the context of anabelian geometry.
