We show that for every connected analytic subvariety $V$ there is a pseudoconvex set $\Omega$ such that every bounded matrix-valued holomorphic function on $V$ extends isometrically to $\Omega$. We prove that if $V$ is two analytic disks…

Let S be a compact connected surface and let f be an element of the group Homeo\_0(S) of homeomorphisms of S isotopic to the identity. Denote by \tilde{f} a lift of f to the universal cover of S. Fix a fundamental domain D of this universal…

For a $p$-adic differential equation solvable in an open disc (in a $p$-adic sense), around 1970, Dwork proves that the solutions satisfy a certain growth condition on the boundary. Dwork also conjectures that a similar phenomenon should be…

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…

Let D be a Hartogs domain of the form D={(z,w) \in CxC^N : |w| < e^{-u(z)}} where u is a subharmonic function on C. We prove that the Bergman space of holomorphic and square integrable functions on D is either trivial or infinite…

Structural stability of holomorphic functions has been the subject of much research in the last fifty years. Due to various technicalities, however, most of that work has focused on so-called finite-type functions (functions whose set of…

The Lewy extension theorem asserts the holomorphic extendability of CR functions defined in a neighborhood of a point on a hypersurface in C^{n+1}. The edge-of-the-wedge theorem asserts the extendability of holomorphic functions defined in…

By using the Bergman representative coordinate and Calabi's diastasis, we extend a theorem of Lu to bounded pseudoconvex domains whose Bergman metric is incomplete with constant holomorphic sectional curvature. We characterize such domains…

The reconstruction theorem deals with dynamical systems that are given by a map $T:X\to X$ of a compact metric space $X$ together with an observable $f:X \to \R$ from $X$ to the real line $\R$. In 1981, by use of Whitney's embedding…

An N-parameter Brownian sheet in R^d maps a non-random compact set F in R^N_+ to the random compact set B(F) in \R^d. We prove two results on the image-set B(F): (1) It has positive d-dimensional Lebesgue measure if and only if F has…

We prove that almost all geodesics on a noncompact locally symmetric space of finite volume grow with a logarithmic speed -- the higher rank generalization of a theorem of D. Sullivan (1982). More generally, under certain conditions on a…

In this article, we prove that if $X$ is a complex manifold of dimension $n\geq 4$ such that there exists a $q$-convex with corners function $f\in F_{q}(X)$, then every holomorphic line bundle over $\{f>c\}$ extends uniquely to $X$ if…

Let D be a strictly convex domain and X be a singular analytic subset of C^2 such that the intersection of X and D is non empty. We give conditions under which a function holomophic on the intersection of X and D can be extended…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of convolution-type functionals defined on general periodic domains by proving an extension theorem

Let the \emph{double hyperbolic space} $\mathbb{DH}^n$, proposed in this paper as an extension of the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^n$, contain a two-sheeted hyperboloid with the two sheets connected to each other along the boundary at…

We show that if a bounded domain $\Omega$ is exhausted by a bounded strictly pseudoconvex domain $D$ with $C^2$ boundary, then $\Omega$ is holomorphically equivalent to $D$ or the unit ball, and show that a bounded domain has to be…

We prove the existence of a locally dense set of real polynomial automorphisms of C 2 displaying a wandering Fatou component; in particular this solves the problem of their existence, reported by Bedford and Smillie in 1991. These Fatou…

In Proposition I of "Memoire sur les conditions de resolubilite des equations par radicaux", Galois established that any intermediate extension of the splitting field of a polynomial with rational coefficients is the fixed field of its…

(Write-up of a talk at the Bialowieza meeting, July 2007.) Gelfand and Kolmogorov in 1939 proved that a compact Hausdorff topological space $X$ can be canonically embedded into the infinite-dimensional vector space $C(X)^* $, the dual space…

In 1934, H. Whitney introduced the problem of extending a function on a set of points in $\mathbb{R}^n$ to an analytic function on the ambient space. In this article we prove Whitney type extension theorems for data on some homogeneous…
