Abstract

We consider the class of Levi nondegenerate hypersurfaces $M$ in $\bC^{n+1}$ that admit a local (CR transversal) embedding, near a point $p\in M$, into a standard nondegenerate hyperquadric in $\Bbb C^{N+1}$ with codimension $k:=N-n$ small compared to the CR dimension $n$ of $M$. We show that, for hypersurfaces in this class, there is a normal form (which is closely related to the embedding) such that any local equivalence between two hypersurfaces in normal form must be an automorphism of the associated tangent hyperquadric. We also show that if the signature of $M$ and that of the standard hyperquadric in $\bC^{N+1}$ are the same, then the embedding is rigid in the sense that any other embedding must be the original embedding composed with an automorphism of the quadric.

Thompson's groups and Teichmüller modular groups of generalized Cantor sets

Thompson's groups, which are denoted by $F, T$ and $V$, were introduced by R. Thompson. It is known that they are related to various fields in mathematics. In this paper, we discuss Thompson's groups $F, T$ and $V$ in Teichmüller modular groups of Teichmüller spaces of generalized Cantor sets with certain conditions by using a quasiconformal geometric method. Moreover, we show that groups corresponding to $F$ and $T$ act properly discontinuously on such Teichmüller spaces. We also show the same results for the asymptotic Teichmüller space. E. de Faria, F. P. Gardiner and W. J. Harvey show similar results on Thompson's group $F$ and asymptotic Teichmüller spaces. So, our results are improvement of them. We also discuss the actions of Thompson's groups on other spaces which we call \lq\lq pre-Tiechmüller spaces" of generalized Cantor sets. Especially, we show that the action of a group which is isomorphic to Thompson's group $V$ on the pre-Teichüller space is not properly discontinuous while groups isomorphic to $F$ and $T$ act properly discontinuously. Finally, we construct infinitely many distinct Teichmüller spaces of generalized Cantor sets where our results can apply.

Spectrum of Complete Kähler Metrics on Bounded Hyperconvex Domains

Let $Ω\subset\mathbb{C}^{n}$ be a bounded domain, and let $ρ:Ω\to[-1,0)$ be a smooth strictly plurisubharmonic exhaustion function. We consider the logarithmic potential $g=-\log(-ρ)$ and the associated complete Kähler metric $ω=dd^{c} g$. We prove that if $ρ$ satisfies the finite weighted Monge-Ampère mass condition with weight $(-ρ)^{\varepsilon}$ for every $\varepsilon>0$, then the spectrum and the essential spectrum of the Laplace-Beltrami operator of $(Ω,ω)$ both coincide with $[n^{2},\infty)$. In particular, the bottom of the spectrum satisfies $λ_{0}(Δ_ω,Ω)=n^{2}$, and $n^{2}$ is not an $L^{2}$-eigenvalue. For each $α> \frac{n}{2}$, we set $f=(-ρ)^α$ and prove that $f$ belongs to $W^{1,2}(Ω,ω)$ if and only if the Monge-Ampère mass of $ρ$ weighted by $(-ρ)^{2α-n}$ is finite. The integral identities underlying this equivalence, applied to the complex powers $(-ρ)^{α+it}$, give, after normalization, a singular Weyl sequence at every $n^{2}+4t^{2}$, $t\in\mathbb{R}$, as $α\downarrow\frac{n}{2}$. Combining our theorem with Cegrell's finite-mass exhaustion theorem, we obtain a complete Kähler metric with spectrum and essential spectrum equal to $[n^{2},\infty)$ on every bounded hyperconvex domain.
