We give an explicit lower bound, in terms of the distance from the boundary, for the Kobayashi metric of a certain class of bounded pseudoconvex domains in $\mathbb{C}^n$ with $\mathcal{C}^2$-smooth boundary using the regularity theory for…

We write down estimates for the surface area, and more generally, integral mean curvatures of an ellipsoid E in n-dimensional Euclidean space in terms of the lengths of the major semi-axes. We give applications to estimating the area of…

In this paper, we obtain a more precise estimate of Catlin-type distance for smoothly bounded pseudoconvex domain of finite type in $\mathbb{C}^2$. As an application, we get an alternative proof of the Gromov hyperbolicity of this domain…

Let $p\ge5$ be a prime and $T$ a Kodaira type of the special fiber of an elliptic curve. We estimate the number of elliptic curves over $\mathbb Q$ up to height $X$ with Kodaira type $T$ at $p$. This enables us find the proportion of…

In arXiv:math/0404297 a non-commutative Iwasawa Main Conjecture for elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ has been formulated. In this note we show that it holds for all CM-elliptic curves $E$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. This was claimed in…

We give sharp $C^{2,\alpha}$ estimates for solutions of some fully nonlinear elliptic and parabolic equations in complex geometry and almost complex geometry, assuming a bound on the Laplacian of the solution. We also prove the analogous…

We provide examples of non-locally compact geodesic Ptolemy metric spaces which are not uniquely geodesic. On the other hand, we show that locally compact, geodesic Ptolemy metric spaces are uniquely geodesic. Moreover, we prove that a…

We prove that a proper geodesic metric space has non-positive curvature in the sense of Alexandrov if and only if it satisfies the Euclidean isoperimetric inequality for curves. Our result extends to non-geodesic spaces and non-zero…

We define the notion of near geodesic between points of a metric space when no geodesic exists, and use this to extend Recio-Mitter's notion of geodesic complexity to non-geodesic spaces. This has potential application to topological…

In this paper we give an local estimate for the Kobayashi distance on a bounded convex domain of finite type, which relates to a local pseudodistance near the boundary. The estimate is precise up to a bounded additive term. Also we conclude…
