In this paper, we study the gap rigidity phenomenon for proper holomorphic maps between balls of different dimension. We show that any $F\in prop_3({\mathbb{B}}^n, {\mathbb{B}} ^N)$, with $3n<N\leq 4n-7$ and $n\geq 7$, is equivalent to a…
Let $ \B^{n+1} \subset \C^{n+1}$ be the unit ball in a complex Euclidean space, and let $ \Sigma^n = \partial \B^{n+1} = S^{2n+1}$. Let $ f: \Sigma^n \hook \Sigma^{N}$ be a local CR immersion.If $ N-n<2n-1$, the asymptotic vectors of the…
We make several new contributions to the study of proper holomorphic mappings between balls. Our results include a degree estimate for rational proper maps, a new gap phenomenon for convex families of arbitrary proper maps, and an…
We study proper holomorphic maps of annuli in complex Euclidean spaces, that is, domains with $U(n)$ as the automorphism group. By the Hartogs phenomenon and a result of Forstneri\v{c}, such maps are always rational and extend to proper…
In this paper, we give an explicit criterion when a rational holomorphic map between balls is equivalent to a polynomial holomorphic map. Making use of this criterion, we show that any proper rational holomorphic map from B^2 into B^N of…
We consider holomorphic mappings $H$ between a smooth real hypersurface $M\subset \bC^{n+1}$ and another $M'\subset \bC^{N+1}$ with $N\geq n$. We provide conditions guaranteeing that $H$ is transversal to $M'$ along all of $M$. In the…
We prove rigidity results for holomorphic proper maps from the complex unit ball $\mathbb{B}^n$ to the Type IV bounded symmetric domain $D^{IV}_m$ where $n \geq 4, n+1\leq m \leq 2n-3$. In addition, a classification result is established…
We prove that if $M$ and $M'$ are algebraic hypersurfaces in $ C^ N$, i.e. both defined by the vanishing of real polynomials, then any sufficiently smooth CR mapping with Jacobian not identically zero extends holomorphically provided the…
Let $M$ be a connected real-analytic hypersurface in $\C^N$ and $\S$ the unit real sphere in $\C^{N'}$, $N'> N\geq 2$. Assume that $M$ does not contain any complex-analytic hypersurface of $\C^N$ and that there exists at least one strongly…
It is shown that if a proper holomorphic map $f: \mathbb C^n \to \mathbb C^N$, $1<n\le N$, sends a pseudoconvex real analytic hypersurface of finite type into another such hypersurface, then any $n-1$ dimensional component of the critical…
Let $M\subset \mathbb C^n$ be a real analytic hypersurface, $M'\subset \mathbb C^N$ $(N\geq n)$ be a strongly pseudoconvex real algebraic hypersurface of the special form and $F$ be a meromorphic mapping in a neighborhood of a point $p\in…
We prove a suite of results classifying holomorphic maps between configuration spaces of Riemann surfaces; we consider both the ordered and unordered setting as well as the cases of genus zero, one, and at least two. We give a complete…
Let H:(M,p)->(M',p') be a formal mapping between two germs of real-analytic generic submanifolds in C^N with nonvanishing Jacobian. Assuming M to be minimal at p and M' holomorphically nondegenerate at p', we prove the convergence of the…
The purpose of this article is towards systematically characterizing (holomorphic) retracts of domains of holomorphy; to begin with, bounded balanced pseudoconvex domains $B \subset \mathbb{C}^N$. Specifically, we show that every retract of…
Let $\Hol_{x_0}^{{\bf n}} (\C\P^1, X)$ be the space of based holomorphic maps of degree ${\bf n}$ from $\C\P^1$ into a simply connected algebraic variety $X$. Under some condition we prove that the map $\map \Hol_{x_0}^{{\bf n}} (\C\P^1,…
We determine all local smooth or formal CR maps from the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^3\subset \mathbb{C}^2$ into the tube $\mathcal{T}:= \mathcal{C} \times i\mathbb{R}^3 \subset \mathbb{C}^3$ over the future light cone $\mathcal{C}:=…
For a compact $(2n+1)$-dimensional smooth manifold, let $\mu_M : B Diff_\partial (D^{2n+1}) \to B Diff (M)$ be the map that is defined by extending diffeomorphisms on an embedded disc by the identity. By a classical result of Farrell and…
In this paper, we study degenerate CR embeddings $f$ of a strictly pseudoconvex hypersurface $M\subset \bC^{n+1}$ into a sphere $\bS$ in a higher dimensional complex space $\bC^{N+1}$. The degeneracy of the mapping $f$ will be characterized…
We introduce several homotopy equivalence relations for proper holomorphic mappings between balls. We provide examples showing that the degree of a rational proper mapping between balls (in positive codimension) is not a homotopy invariant.…
Given a proper, rational map of balls, D'Angelo and Xiao introduced five natural groups encoding properties of the map. We study these groups using a recently discovered normal form for rational maps of balls. Using this normal form, we…
