Complex<Emphasis Type="BoldItalic">n</Emphasis>-dimensional manifolds with a real<Emphasis Type="BoldItalic">n</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript>-dimensional automorphism group

The main theorem of this article is a characterization of non compact simply connected complete Kobayashi hyperbolic complex manifold of dimension n≽ 2 with real n ²-dimensional holomorphic automorphism group. Together with the earlier work [11, 12] and [13] of Isaev and Krantz, this yields a complete classification of the simply-connected, complete Kobayashi hyperbolic manifolds with dim_ℝ Aut (M) ≽ (dim_ℂ M)².

Regularity of solutions to a non homogeneous boundary value problem for general Stokes systems in R<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript><Subscript>+</Subscript>

We give a simple and very complete proof of the existence of a strong (H²) solution to the non-homogeneous problem (1.1) under the non homogeneous boundary conditions (1.6). Here we consider the half-space case = Rⁿ₊, n 3, see theorem 1.2. This regularity result was previously obtained by Solonnikov and adilov in reference [33] for the classical Stokes system (==0, g(x)=0) in the 3–D homogenous case (a=0, b=0) and a suitable open subset of R^3.Partly supported by CMAF/UL and FCT.     

Characterization of the unit ball in C<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript> among complex manifolds of dimension<Emphasis Type="BoldItalic">n</Emphasis>

We show that if the group of holomorphic automorphisms of a connected complex manifold M of dimension n is isomorphic as a topological group equipped with the compact-open topology to the automorphism group of the unit ball B ⁿ ⊂ ℂ ⁿ ,then M is biholomorphically equivalent to B ⁿ.     

The Cauchy Boundary Value Problems on Closed Piecewise Smooth Manifolds in <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>

Suppose that D is a bounded domain with a piecewise C^1 smooth boundary in C^n. Let ψ∈C^1 α(δD). By using the Hadamard principal value of the higher order singular integral and solid angle coefficient method of points on the boundary, we give the Plemelj formula of the higher order singular integral with the Boehner-Martinelli kernel, which has integral density ψ. Moreover, by means of the Plemelj formula and methods of complex partial differential equations, we discuss the corresponding Cauehy boundary value problem with the Boehner-Martinelli kernel on a closed piecewise smooth manifold and obtain its unique branch complex harmonic solution.     

Maximal <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript>-regularity for the Laplacian on Lipschitz domains

We consider the Laplacian with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions on bounded Lipschitz domains Ω, both with the following two domains of definition: , or , where B is the boundary operator. We prove that, under certain restrictions on the range of p, these operators generate positive analytic contraction semigroups on L ^p (Ω) which implies maximal regularity for the corresponding Cauchy problems. In particular, if Ω is bounded and convex and , the Laplacian with domain D ₂(Δ) has the maximal regularity property, as in the case of smooth domains. In the last part, we construct an example that proves that, in general, the Dirichlet–Laplacian with domain D ₁(Δ) is not even a closed operator.

On meromorphic solutions of <Emphasis Type="Italic">f</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript> + <Emphasis Type="Italic">g</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript> = 1

We show that meromorphic solutions f, g of f ² + g ² = 1 in C² must be constant, if f _z2 and g _z1 have the same zeros (counting multiplicities). We also apply the result to characterize meromorphic solutions of certain nonlinear partial differential equations.     

On the <Emphasis Type="Italic">K</Emphasis>-Theory of Graph <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis><Superscript>*</Superscript>-Algebras

We classify graph C ^*-algebras, namely, Cuntz-Krieger algebras associated to the Bass-Hashimoto edge incidence operator of a finite graph, up to strict isomorphism. This is done by a purely graph theoretical calculation of the K-theory of the C ^*-algebras and the method also provides an independent proof of the classification up to Morita equivalence and stable equivalence of such algebras, without using the boundary operator algebra. A direct relation is given between the K ₁-group of the algebra and the cycle space of the graph. We thank Jakub Byszewski for his input in Sect. 2.8. The position of the unit in K ₀( _Ч) was guessed based on some example calculations by Jannis Visser in his SCI 291 Science Laboratory at Utrecht University College.     

Analytic continuation of holomorphic correspondences and equivalence of domains in ℂ<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>

The following result is proved: Let D and D′ be bounded domains in ℂ ⁿ , ∂D is smooth, real-analytic, simply connected, and ∂D′ is connected, smooth, real-algebraic. Then there exists a proper holomorphic correspondence f:D→D′ if and only if there exist points p∈∂D and p′∈∂D′, such that ∂D and ∂D′ are locally CR-equivalent near p and p′. This leads to a characterization of the equivalence relationship between bounded domains in ℂ ⁿ modulo proper holomorphic correspondences in terms of local CR-equivalence of their boundaries.

A criterion for <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript>-rectifiability of sets

The following result is proved: Let be a n-dimensional C¹-submanifold of R^N which is domain of a given _nR^N-valued map of class C¹. Then the set of all points P such that (P) is non-zero, simple and enveloped by T_P is C²-rectifiable. As a corollary we get a criterion for the C²-rectifiability of a rectifiable set based on the rectifiability of some generalized Gauss lift to the Grassmanian bundle R^N×G(N,n).

Summability Kernels for <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript> Multipliers

In this article we study the problem of extending Fourier Multipliers on L ^p (T) to those on L ^p (R) by taking convolution with a kernel, called a summability kernel. We characterize the space of such kernels for the cases p = 1 and p = 2. For other values of p we give a necessary condition for a function to be a summability kernel. For the case p = 1, we present properties of measures which are transferred from M(T) to M(R) by summability kernels. Furthermore it is shown that every l _p sequence can be extended to some L ^q (R) multipliers for certain values of p and q.

On the ideal (<Emphasis Type="Italic">v</Emphasis><Superscript>0</Superscript>)

The σ-ideal (v ⁰) is associated with the Silver forcing, see [5]. Also, it constitutes the family of all completely doughnut null sets, see [9]. We introduce segment topologies to state some resemblances of (v ⁰) to the family of Ramsey null sets. To describe add(v ⁰) we adopt a proof of Base Matrix Lemma. Consistent results are stated, too. Halbeisen’s conjecture cov(v ⁰) = add(v ⁰) is confirmed under the hypothesis t = min{cf(c), r}. The hypothesis cov(v ⁰) = ω ₁ implies that (v ⁰) has the ideal type (c, ω ₁, c).      

Bloch constant of holomorphic mappings on the unit polydisk of ℂ<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>

In this paper, we give a definition of Bloch mappings defined in the unit polydisk D ⁿ , which generalizes the concept of Bloch functions defined in the unit disk D. It is known that Bloch theorem fails unless we have some restrictive assumption on holomorphic mappings in several complex variables. We shall establish the corresponding distortion theorems for subfamilies β(K) and β _loc(K) of Bloch mappings defined in the polydisk D ⁿ , which extend the distortion theorems of Liu and Minda to higher dimensions. As an application, we obtain lower and upper bounds of Bloch constants for various subfamilies of Bloch mappings defined in D ⁿ . In particular, our results reduce to the classical results of Ahlfors and Landau when n = 1.

The relative isoperimetric inequality outside convex domains in R<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>

We prove that the area of a hypersurface Σ which traps a given volume outside a convex domain C in Euclidean space R ⁿ is bigger than or equal to the area of a hemisphere which traps the same volume on one side of a hyperplane. Further, when C has smooth boundary ∂C, we show that equality holds if and only if Σ is a hemisphere which meets ∂C orthogonally.
