This is an introduction to a particular class of auxiliary complex Monge-Amp\`ere equations which had been instrumental in $L^\infty$ estimates for fully non-linear equations and various questions in complex geometry. The essential…
The H\"older continuity of the truncated moment map of a shade function in Euclidean space is established in the vicinity of a principal semi-algebraic set. The proof combines volume bounds of semi-algebraic sets and convex optimization…

We develop the first steps of a parabolic pluripotential theory in bounded strongly pseudo-convex domains of Cn. We study certain degenerate parabolic complex Monge-Amp{\`e}re equations, modelled on the K{\"a}hler-Ricci flow evolving on…
We study properties of pseudo-Riemannian metrics corresponding to Monge-Amp\`ere structures on four-dimensional $T^*M$. We describe a family of Ricci flat solutions, which are parametrized by six coefficients satisfying the Pl\"ucker…

We present a new notion of speciality which is valid for Bohr - Sommerfeld lagrangian submanifolds. For algebraic varieties it leads to the construction of finite dimensional moduli spaces which are algebraic starting with any ample line…
Let u be a function of n independent variables x^1, ..., x^n, and U=(u_{ij}) the Hessian matrix of u. The symplectic Monge-Ampere equation is defined as a linear relation among all possible minors of U. Particular examples include the…

We define a general class of elliptic equations for 2-forms on 4-manifolds, of which the complex Monge-Ampere equation is a prototype. We obtain some regularity results and discuss various connections (some speculative) with modern…
Derived geometry provides powerful tools to handle non-transverse intersections and singular moduli problems arising in geometry and theoretical physics. While derived algebraic geometry has been extensively developed, classical field…
We introduce a new family of closed differential forms naturally associated with minimal graphical submanifolds in Euclidean space, defined in arbitrary codimension. For each minimal graph, we construct an explicit closed form whose…
The supersymmetry invariance of flat supergravity (i.e., supergravity in the absence of any internal scale in the Lagrangian) in four dimensions on a manifold with non-trivial boundary is explored. Using a geometric approach we find that…
We give upper and lower bounds on the volume of a tubular neighborhood of the nodal set of an eigenfunction of the Laplacian on a real analytic closed Riemannian manifold M. As an application we consider the question of approximating points…
In this paper, the author studies quaternionic Monge-Amp\`ere equations and obtain the existence of the solutions to the Dirichlet problem for such equations in strictly pesudoconvex domains in quaternionic space. The stability and…
This short and fairly informal note is an attempt to explain how methods of homological algebra may be brought to bear on problems in symplectic geometry. We do this by looking at a familiar sample question, which is that of the topology of…
A compact Riemannian manifold may be immersed into Euclidean space by using high frequency Laplace eigenfunctions. We study the geometry of the manifold viewed as a metric space endowed with the distance function from the ambient Euclidean…
Variational problems under uniform quasiconvex constraints on the gradient are studied. In particular, existence of solutions to such problems is proved as well as existence of lagrange multipliers associated to the uniform constraint. They…
