The purpose of this article is twofold. The first aim is to characterize an $n$-dimensional hyperbolic complex manifold $M$ exhausted by a sequence $\{\Omega_j\}$ of domains in $\mathbb C^n$ via an exhausting sequence $\{f_j\colon…

Using techniques from the analysis of PDEs to study the boundary behaviour of functions on domains with low boundary regularity, we extend results by Forna\ae{}ss-Wiegerinck (1989) on plurisubharmonic approximation and by Demailly (1987) on…

We show that every bounded domain $D$ in $\mathbb R^n$ with smooth $p$-convex boundary for $2\le p < n$ admits a smooth defining function $\rho$ which is $p$-plurisubharmonic on $\overline D$; if in addition $bD$ has no $p$-flat points then…

We establish plurisubharmonicity of the envelope of Poisson and Lelong functionals on almost complex manifolds. That is, we generalize the corresponding results for complex manifolds and almost complex manifolds of complex dimension two. We…

The boundary of every relatively compact Stein domain in a complex manifold of dimension at least two is connected. No assumptions on the boundary regularity are necessary. The same proofs hold also for $q$-complete domains, and in the…

We study the problem of approximating plurisubharmonic functions on a bounded domain $\Omega$ by continuous plurisubharmonic functions defined on neighborhoods of $\bar\Omega$. It turns out that this problem can be linked to the problem of…

We show that every smooth closed oriented four-manifold admits a decomposition into two co- dimension zero submanifolds with common boundary. Each of these submanifolds carries a structure of a symplectic manifold with pseudo-convex…

In the study of complex flag manifolds, flag domains and their cycle spaces, a key point is the fact that the cycle space $\mathcal M_D$ of a flag domain $D$ is a Stein manifold. That fact has a long history. The earliest approach relied on…

A weakly complete space is a complex space admitting a (smooth) plurisubharmonic exhaustion function. In this paper, we classify those weakly complete complex surfaces for which such exhaustion function can be chosen real analytic: they can…

Complete hyperbolicity of small Euclidean balls with respect to a C^1-smooth almost complex structure standard at origin is improved to give a complete hyperbolicity of strictly pseudoconvex domains. More precise (and lower) regularity…

In a previous work, we classified weakly complete surfaces which admit a real analytic plurisubharmonic exhaustion function; we showed that, if they are not proper over a Stein space, then they admit a pluriharmonic function, with compact…

We show that every strictly pseudoconvex domain $\Omega$ with smooth boundary in a complex manifold $\mathcal{M}$ admits a global defining function, i.e., a smooth plurisubharmonic function $\varphi \colon U \to \mathbb R$ defined on an…

In this paper we establish a gap theorem for the complex geometry of smoothly bounded convex domains which informally says that if the complex geometry near the boundary is close to the complex geometry of the unit ball, then the domain…

By a theorem of Greene and Wu, a noncompact connected Riemannian manifold admits a smooth strictly subharmonic exhaustion function. Demailly provided an elementary proof of this fact. A further simplification of Demailly's proof and some…

Let $(V,\omega)$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold such that $V$ admits a cover by Zariski-open Stein sets with the property that $\omega$ has a strictly plurisubharmonic exhaustive potential on each element of the cover. If $X\subset V$ is an…

Let D be a smoothly bounded domain in complex space of dimension larger than 2. Suppose that D admits a smooth defining function which is plurisubharmonic on the boundary of D. Then the Diederich-Fornaess exponent can be chosen arbitrarily…

It is shown that two strictly pseudoconvex Stein domains with real analytic boundaries have biholomorphic universal coverings provided that their boundaries are locally biholomorphically equivalent. This statement can be regarded as a…

In this paper we prove the basic facts for pluricomplex Green functions on manifolds. The main goal is to establish properties of complex manifolds that make them analogous to relatively compact or hyperconvex domains in Stein manifolds.…

We prove that all locally exposable points in a Stein compact in a complex space can be exposed along a given curve to a given real hypersurface. Moreover, the exposing map for a boundary point can be sufficiently close to the identity map…

In this paper we consider the following question: For bounded domains with smooth boundary, can strong pseudoconvexity be characterized in terms of the intrinsic complex geometry of the domain? Our approach to answering this question is…
