Generalized reinhardt domains

In this paper we investigate a class of Lie group actions on , the so-calledpolar actions, that naturally generalize the standard actions. For a domain invariant under such an action (i.e., a generalized Reinhardt domain) we characterize the invariant plurisubharmonic functions and determine the envelope of holomorphy in geometric terms. For a generalized Reinhardt domain containing the origin of we also compute its automorphism group. Supported in part by NSF Grant 8602020     

Harmonic maps from compact Kähler manifolds to exceptional hyperbolic spaces

It has been conjectured that a lattice in a noncompact group of real rank one, other than SU(1,n), cannot be isomorphic to the fundamental group of a compact Kähler manifold; moreover, it is known to be true for SO(1,n). In this note it is shown that this conjecture also holds for the case of uniform lattices in F_4(?20), the group of isometries of the Cayley hyperbolic plane. The result is a consequence of a classification theorem for harmonic maps between Kähler and Cayley hyperbolic manifolds.     

Harmonic maps with fixed singular sets

Suppose Ω is a smooth domain in R^m,N is a compact smooth Riemannian manifold, andZ is a fixed compact subset of Ω having finite (m − 3)-dimensional Minkowski content (e.g.,Z ism − 3 rectifiable). We consider various spaces of harmonic mapsu: Ω →N that have a singular setZ and controlled behavior nearZ. We study the structure of such spacesH and questions of existence, uniqueness, stability, and minimality under perturbation. In caseZ = 0,H is a Banach manifold locally diffeomorphic to a submanifold of the product of the boundary data space with a finite-dimensional space of Jacobi fields with controlled singular behavior. In this smooth case, the projection ofu εH tou |ϖΩ is Fredholm of index 0. R. H.’s research partially supported by the National Science Foundation.     

On the topology of compact smooth three-dimensional Levi-flat hypersurfaces

We study topological conditions that must be satisfied by a compactC ^∞ Levi-flat hypersurface in a two-dimensional complex manifold, as well as related questions about the holonomy of Levi-flat hypersurfaces. As a consequence of our work, we show that no two-dimensional complex manifold admits a subdomain Ω with compact nonemptyC ^∞ boundary such that Ω ? ?².     

Chern forms,chern numbers and curvature conditions on a Kähler-Einstein surface

In this paper we considered curvature conditions on a Kähler-Einstein surface of general type. In particular we showed that it has negative holomorphic sectional curvature if theL ²-norm of (3C ₂ ?C ₁ ² )/C ₁ ² is sufficiently small, whereC ₁ andC ₂ are the first and second Chern classes of the surfaces. This generalizes a result of Yau on the uniformization of Kähler-Einstein surfaces of general type and with 3C ₂ ?C ₁ ² = 0. Also in the process, we obtain a necessary condition in terms of an inequality between Chern numbers for a Kähler-Einstein metric to have negative holomorphic sectional curvature.     

Some new domains with complete Kähler metrics of negative curvature

We add to the known examples of complete Kähler manifolds with negative sectional curvature by showing that the following three classes of domains in euclidean spaces also belong: perturbations of ellipsoidal domains in ?ⁿ, intersections of complex-ellipsoidal domains in ?², and intersections of fractional linear transforms of the unit ball in ?². In the process, we prove the following theorem in differential geometry: in the intersection of two complex-ellipsoidal domains in ?², the sum of the Bergman metrics is a Kähler metric with negative curvature operator.     

Existence of generic homoclinic tangencies for henon mappings

It is an open question whether there is a strange attractor for the Henon mapping. We show that for certain maps close to the Henon map there are strange attractors.     

Kinetic simulation of living carbocationic polymerizations. II. Simulation of living isobutylene polymerization using a mechanistic model

This paper discusses the kinetic simulation of TiCl₄--coinitiated living carbocationic isobutylene (IB) polymerizations governed by dormant-active equilibria, using a mechanistic model. Two kinetic models were constructed from the same underlying mechanism: one using a commercial simulation software package (Predici^®), and the other using the method of moments. Parameter estimation from experimental batch reactor data with Predici yielded a rate constant of propagation k_p = 4.64 × 10⁸ ± 2.75 × 10⁸ L/mol s, with no constraints imposed. This agrees with k_p data measured with diffusion clock and competition methods, but disagrees with kinetically obtained k_p values. Estimation of rate constants with Predici^® and the GREG parameter estimation software packages revealed that it was difficult to estimate the complete set of kinetic parameters, due to correlated effects of the parameters on model predictions. Estimability analysis confirmed that some of the strongly correlating parameters could not be estimated simultaneously using the available experimental data. Using k_p = 6 × 10⁸ ± 2.75  × 10⁸ L/mol s measured by Mayr, and using starting estimates of other rate constants defined by experimentally observed correlations, yielded the set of rate constants required for the simulations. Both kinetic models yielded good agreement with experimental data, with the exception of M_w values that slightly diverged from the theoretically predicted ‘M_w−M_n = constant’ relationship. This may indicate the occurrence of a minor side reaction. However, the k_p/k₋₁ = 17.5 L/mol average run length calculated from measured and simulated MWD data agrees well with earlier literature values.
