The Kobayashi pseudometric on a complex manifold is the maximal pseudometric such that any holomorphic map from the Poincaré disk to the manifold is distance-decreasing. Kobayashi has conjectured that this pseudometric vanishes on Calabi-Yau manifolds. Using ergodicity of complex structures, we prove this conjecture fo…

The Fock-Bargmann-Hartogs domain $D_{n,m}$ in $\mathbb{C}^{n+m}$ is defined by the inequality $\|w\|^2<e^{-\|z\|^2},$ where $(z,w)\in \mathbb{C}^n\times \mathbb{C}^m$, which is an unbounded non-hyperbolic domain in $\mathbb{C}^{n+m}$. This paper mainly consists of three parts. Firstly, we give the explicit expression o…

Study of pseudometric properties on domains in Nagano spaces.

Investigates properties of a pseudometric on domains in Euclidean space, linking it to hyperbolic geometry.

We define the Kobayashi quotient of a complex variety by identifying points with vanishing Kobayashi pseudodistance between them and show that if a compact complex manifold has an automorphism whose order is infinite, then the fibers of this quotient map are nontrivial. We prove that the Kobayashi quotients associated …

We establish a lower estimate for the Kobayashi-Royden infinitesimal pseudometric on an almost complex manifold $(M,J)$ admitting a bounded strictly plurisubharmonic function. We apply this result to study the boundary behaviour of the metric on a strictly pseudoconvex domain in $M$ and to give a sufficient condition f…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the smooth extension of a diffeomorphism between smooth strictly pseudoconvex domains in four real dimensional almost complex manifolds. The proof is mainly based on a reflection principle for pseudoholomorphic discs, on precise estimates of the Kobayashi-Royden infinite…

The paper constructs contact-hyperbolic manifolds with large automorphism groups.

Let $S$ be a closed and oriented surface of genus $g$ at least $2$. In this (mostly expository) article, the object of study is the space $\mathcal{P}(S)$ of marked isomorphism classes of projective structures on $S$. We show that $\mathcal{P}(S)$, endowed with the canonical complex structure, carries exotic hermitian …

Paper defines a new pseudometric for measuring consensus among subsets of relations.

In this work we define a new pseudometric in $\mathcal K^n_*$, the hyperspace of all non-degenerated compact convex sets of $\mathbb R^n$, which is invariant under similarities. We will prove that the quotient space generated by this pseudometric (which is the orbit space generated by the natural action of the group of…

Paper shows pseudometrics on braid groups are nondegenerate.

We provide an example of a zero-dimensional compact metric space $X$ and its closed subspace $A$ such that there is no continuous linear extension operator for the Lipschitz pseudometrics on $A$ to the Lipschitz pseudometrics on $X$. The construction is based on results of A. Brudnyi and Yu. Brudnyi concerning linear e…

We study the geometry of the (generalized) twistor triangles $\triangle J_1J_2J_3$ in the period domain of compact complex tori of complex dimension $2n$ by the means of the representation theory of the algebras (of real dimension 8) generated by the complex structures $J_1,J_2,J_3$. Considering the period domain as th…

New pseudometrics defined on knot spaces based on curve thickness and length.

In this short note, we prove that a complex Finsler vector bundle with positive Kobayashi curvature must be ample, which partially solves a problem of S. Kobayashi posed in 1975. As applications, a strongly pseudoconvex complex Finsler manifold with positive Kobayashi curvature must be biholomorphic to the complex proj…

Establishes Kobayashi-Hitchin correspondence for nef and big classes.

In this paper we prove necessary and sufficient conditions for the Kobayashi metric on a convex domain to be Gromov hyperbolic. In particular we show that for convex domains with $C^\infty$ boundary being of finite type in the sense of D'Angelo is equivalent to the Gromov hyperbolicity of the Kobayashi metric. We also …

New proof of Kobayashi's properness criterion using metric geometry.

In this paper we define Kobayashi-Royden pseudonorm for almost complex manifolds. Its basic properties known from the complex analysis are preserved in the nonintegrable case as well. We prove that the pseudodistance induced by this pseudonorm coincides with the Kobayashi pseudodistance defined for the almost complex c…

In this paper, we compute canonical connections and Kobayashi-Nomizu connections and their curvature on three-dimensional Lorentzian Lie groups with some product structure. We define algebraic Ricci solitons associated to canonical connections and Kobayashi-Nomizu connections. We classify algebraic Ricci solitons assoc…

Regularity properties of intrinsic objects for a large class of Stein Manifolds, namely of Monge-Ampère exhaustions and Kobayashi distance, is interpreted in terms of modular data. The results lead to a construction of an infinite dimensional family of convex domains with squared Kobayashi distance of prescribed regula…

Classifies hyperbolic manifolds with specific automorphism groups.

Constructs a convex Finsler metric on vector bundles under specific conditions.

A compact complex manifold is Kobayashi non-hyperbolic if there exists an entire curve on it. Using mirror symmetry we establish that there are (possibly singular) elliptic or rational curves on any Calabi-Yau manifold $X$, whose mirror dual $\check X$ exists and is not "Hodge degenerate", therefore proving that $X$ is…

Survey on recent breakthrough linking curvature and Kobayashi hyperbolicity.

The paper proves conditions for vector bundles to be Kobayashi and Griffiths positive.

In this paper we study the global geometry of the Kobayashi metric on domains in complex Euclidean space. We are particularly interested in developing necessary and sufficient conditions for the Kobayashi metric to be Gromov hyperbolic. For general domains, it has been suggested that a non-trivial complex affine disk i…

We establish a Kobayashi-Hitchin correspondence for the stable Higgs sheaves on a compact Kaehler manifold. Using it, we also obtain a Kobayashi-Hitchin correspondence for the stable Higgs G-sheaves, where G is any complex reductive linear algebraic group.

We extend the definition of the Kobayashi pseudodistance to almost complex manifolds and show that its familliar properties are for the most part preserved. We also study the automorphism group of an almost complex manifold and finish with some examples.

Starting from the description of Segre forms as direct images of (powers of) the first Chern form of the (anti)tautological line bundle on the projectivized bundle of a holomorphic hermitian vector bundle, we derive a version of the pointwise Kobayashi-Lübke inequality.

We prove the Kobayashi-Hitchin correspondence and the approximate Kobayashi-Hitchin correspondence for twisted holomorphic vector bundles on compact Kähler manifolds. More precisely, if $X$ is a compact manifold and $g$ is a Gauduchon metric on $X$, a twisted holomorphic vector bundle on $X$ is $g-$polystable if and on…

The study proves Gromov hyperbolicity for certain complex domains.

We determine all connected homogeneous Kobayashi-hyperbolic manifolds of dimension $n\ge 2$ whose holomorphic automorphism group has dimension $n^2-3$. This result complements existing classifications for automorphism group dimension $n^2-2$ (which is in some sense critical) and greater.

We prove that every bounded strictly $J$-convex region equipped with the Kobayashi metric is hyperbolic in the sense of Gromov. We apply this result to the study of the dynamics of pseudo-holomorphic maps.

We determine all connected homogeneous Kobayashi-hyperbolic manifolds of dimension $n\ge 2$ whose holomorphic automorphism group has dimension $n^2-2$. This result complements an existing classification for automorphism group dimension $n^2-1$ and greater obtained without the homogeneity assumption.

In this paper we extend the notion of the Kobayashi-Royden pseudonorm for almost complex manifolds. Its basic properties known from the complex analysis are preserved in the nonintegrable case as well. The main theorem on coincidence of the pseudodistance induced by this pseudonorm with the Kobayashi pseudodistance for…
