Iteration of holomorphic maps on Lie balls

We investigate iterations of fixed-point free holomorphic self-maps on a Lie ball of any dimension, where a Lie ball is a bounded symmetric domain and the open unit ball of a spin factor which can be infinite dimensional. We describe the invariant domains of a holomorphic self-map f on a Lie ball D when f   is fixed-point free and compact, and show that each limit function of the iterates (fⁿ)$(f^n)$ has values in a one-dimensional disc on the boundary of D  . We show that the Möbius transformation _ga$g_a$ induced by a nonzero element a in D may fail the Denjoy–Wolff-type theorem, even in finite dimension. We determine those which satisfy the theorem.     

Proper holomorphic self-maps of symmetric powers of balls

We show that each proper holomorphic self map of a symmetric power of the unit ball is an automorphism naturally induced by an automorphism of the unit ball, provided the ball is of dimension at least two.     

Residues of holomorphic sections and lelong currents

LetZ be the zero set of a holomorphic sectionf of a Hermitian vector bundle. It is proved that the current of integration over the irreducible components ofZ of top degree, counted with multiplicities, is a product of a residue factorR ^f and a “Jacobian factor”. There is also a relation to the Monge-Ampère expressions (dd ^c log|f|) ^k , which we define for all positive powersk. The author was partially supported by the Swedish Research Council.

On the third gap for proper holomorphic maps between balls

Let $F$ be a proper rational map from the complex ball $\mathbb B ^n$ into $\mathbb B ^N$ with $n>7$ and $3n+1 \le N\le 4n-7$ . Then $F$ is equivalent to a map $(G, 0, \dots , 0)$ where $G$ is a proper holomorphic map from $\mathbb B ^n$ into $\mathbb B ^{3n}$ .     

Characterization of balls by generalized Riesz energy

We show that balls, circles and 2‐spheres can be identified by generalized Riesz energy among compact submanifolds of the Euclidean space that are either closed or with codimension 0, where the Riesz energy is defined as the double integral of some power of the distance between pairs of points. As a consequence, we obtain the identification by the interpoint distance distribution.     

Extension of holomorphic and pluriharmonic functions with thin singularities on parallel sections

The paper is of survey character. We present and discuss recent results concerning the extension of functions that admit holomorphic or plurisubharmonic extension in a fixed direction. These results are closely related to Hartogs’ fundamental theorem, which states that if a function f(z), z = (z ₁, z ₂, ..., z _z ), is holomorphic in a domain D ? ?ⁿ in each variable z _j , then it is holomorphic in D in the n-variable sense.     

Stochastics and thermodynamics for equilibrium measures of holomorphic endomorphisms on complex projective spaces

It was proved by Urbański and Zdunik (Fund Math 220:23–69, 2013) that for every holomorphic endomorphism $f:{{\mathbb { P}}}^k\rightarrow {{\mathbb { P}}}^k$ of a complex projective space ${{\mathbb { P}}}^k,k\ge 1$ , there exists a positive number $\kappa _f>0$ such that if $J$ is the Julia set of $f$ (i.e. the support of the maximal entropy measure) and $\phi :J\rightarrow {\mathbb R}$ is a Hölder continuous function with $\sup (\phi )-\inf (\phi )<\kappa _f$ (pressure gap), then $\phi $ admits a unique equilibrium state $\mu _\phi $ on $J$ . In this paper we prove that the dynamical system ( $f,\mu _\phi $ ) enjoys exponential decay of correlations of Hölder continuous observables as well as the Central Limit Theorem and the Law of Iterated Logarithm for the class of these variables that, in addition, satisfy a natural co-boundary condition. We also show that the topological pressure function $t\mapsto P(t\phi )$ is real-analytic throughout the open set of all parameters $t$ for which the potentials $t\phi $ have pressure gaps.     

On the L 2-extension of twisted holomorphic sections of singular hermitian line bundles

We prove a sharp Ohsawa–Takegoshi–Manivel type L ²-extension result for twisted holomorphic sections of singular hermitian line bundles over almost Stein manifolds. We establish as corollaries some extension results for pluri-twisted holomorphic sections of singular hermitian line bundles over projective manifolds.     

The range of holomorphic maps at boundary points

We prove a boundary version of the open mapping theorem for holomorphic maps between strongly pseudoconvex domains. That is, we prove that the local image of a holomorphic map \(f{:\,}D\rightarrow D'\) close to a boundary regular contact point \(p\in \partial D\) where the Jacobian is bounded away from zero along normal non-tangential directions has to eventually contain every cone (and more generally every region which is Kobayashi asymptotic to a cone) with vertex at \(f(p)\) .
