Canonical metrics on Hartogs domains

An $n$-dimensional Hartogs domain $D_F$ with strongly pseudoconvex boundary can be equipped with a natural Kaehler metric $g_F$. This paper contains two results. In the first one we prove that if $g_F$ is an extremal Kaehler metric then $(D_F, g_F)$ is holomorphically isometric to an open subset of the $n$-dimensional complex hyperbolic space. In the second one we prove the same assertion under the assumption that there exists a real holomorphic vector field $X$ on $D_F$ such that $(g_F, X)$ is a Kaehler-Ricci soliton.

Radial Balanced metrics on the unit disk

Let $Φ$ be a strictly plurisubharmonic and radial function on the unit disk ${\cal D}\subset {\complex}$ and let $g$ be the \K metric associated to the \K form $ω=\frac{i}{2}\partial\bar\partialΦ$. We prove that if $g$ is $g_{eucl}$-balanced of height 3 (where $g_{eucl}$ is the standard Euclidean metric on ${\complex}={\real}^2$), and the function $h(x)=e^{-Φ(z)}$, $x=|z|^2$, extends to an entire analytic function on ${\real}$, then $g$ equals the hyperbolic metric. The proof of our result is based on a interesting characterization of the function $f(x)=1-x$.

Riemannian geometry of Hartogs domains

Let $D_F = \{(z_0, z) \in {\C}^{n} | |z_0|^2 < b, \|z\|^2 < F(|z_0|^2) \}$ be a strongly pseudoconvex Hartogs domain endowed with the \K metric $g_F$ associated to the \K form $ω_F = -\frac{i}{2} \partial \bar{\partial} \log (F(|z_0|^2) - \|z\|^2)$. This paper contains several results on the Riemannian geometry of these domains. In the first one we prove that if $D_F$ admits a non special geodesic (see definition below) through the origin whose trace is a straight line then $D_F$ is holomorphically isometric to an open subset of the complex hyperbolic space. In the second theorem we prove that all the geodesics through the origin of $D_F$ do not self-intersect, we find necessary and sufficient conditions on $F$ for $D_F$ to be geodesically complete and we prove that $D_F$ is locally irreducible as a Riemannian manifold. Finally, we compare the Bergman metric $g_B$ and the metric $g_F$ in a bounded Hartogs domain and we prove that if $g_B$ is a multiple of $g_F$, namely $g_B=λg_F$, for some $λ\in \R^+$, then $D_F$ is holomorphically isometric to an open subset of the complex hyperbolic space.

Symplectic duality between complex domains

In this paper after extending the definition of symplectic duality (given by the first two authors in arXiv:math/0603141 for bounded symmetric domains) to arbitrary complex domains of ${\C}^n$ centered at the origin we generalize some of the results proved in arXiv:math/0603141 and arXiv:0707.2125 to those domains.

Symplectic maps of complex domains into complex space forms

Let $M\subset{\complex}^n$ be a complex domain of ${\complex}^n$ endowed with a rotation invariant \K form $ω_Φ= \frac{i}{2} \partial\bar\partialΦ$. In this paper we describe sufficient conditions on the \K potential $Φ$ for $(M, ω_Φ)$ to admit a symplectic embedding (explicitely described in terms of $Φ$) into a complex space form of the same dimension of $M$. In particular we also provide conditions on $Φ$ for $(M, ω_Φ)$ to admit global symplectic coordinates. As an application of our results we prove that each of the Ricci flat (but not flat) \K forms on ${\complex}^2$ constructed by LeBrun (Taub-NUT metric) admits explicitely computable global symplectic coordinates.

The bisymplectomorphism group of a bounded symmetric domain

An Hermitian bounded symmetric domain in a complex vector space, given in its circled realization, is endowed with two natural symplectic forms: the flat form and the hyperbolic form. In a similar way, the ambient vector space is also endowed with two natural symplectic forms: the Fubini-Study form and the flat form. It has been shown in arXiv:math.DG/0603141 that there exists a diffeomorphism from the domain to the ambient vector space which puts in correspondence the above pair of forms. This phenomenon is called symplectic duality for Hermitian non compact symmetric spaces. In this article, we first give a different and simpler proof of this fact. Then, in order to measure the non uniqueness of this symplectic duality map, we determine the group of bisymplectomorphisms of a bounded symmetric domain, that is, the group of diffeomorphisms which preserve simultaneously the hyperbolic and the flat symplectic form. This group is the direct product of the compact Lie group of linear automorphisms with an infinite-dimensional Abelian group. This result appears as a kind of Schwarz lemma.

TYZ expansion for the Kepler manifold

The main goal of the paper is to address the issue of the existence of Kempf's distortion function and the Tian-Yau-Zelditch (TYZ) asymptotic expansion for the Kepler manifold - an important example of non compact manfold. Motivated by the recent results for compact manifolds we construct Kempf's distortion function and derive a precise TYZ asymptotic expansion for the Kepler manifold. We get an exact formula: finite asymptotic expansion of $n-1$ terms and exponentially small error terms uniformly with respect to the discrete quantization parameter $m\to \infty $ and $ρ\to \infty$, $ρ$ being the polar radius in $\C^n$. Moreover, the coefficents are calculated explicitly and they turned out to be homogeneous functions with respect to the polar radius in the Kepler manifold. We also prove and derive an asymptotic expansion of the obtstruction term with the coefficients being defined by geometrical quantities. We show that our estimates are sharp by analyzing the nonharmonic behaviour of $T_m$ and the error term of the approximation of the Fubini--Study metric by $mω$ for $m\to +\infty$. The arguments of the proofs combine geometrical methods, quantization tools and functional analytic techniques for investigating asymptotic expansions in the framework of analytic-Gevrey spaces.

Extremal metrics on Hartogs domains

An $n$-dimensional Hartogs domain $D_F$ with strongly pseudoconvex boundary can be equipped with a natural \K metric $g_F$. In this paper we prove that if $g_F$ is an extremal \K metric then $(D_F, g_F)$ is biholomorphically isometric to the $n$-dimensional complex hyperbolic space.

Kahler manifolds and their relatives

Let $M_1$ and $M_2$ be two Kähler manifolds. We call $M_1$ and $M_2$ {\em relatives} if they share a non-trivial Kähler submanifold $S$, namely, if there exist two holomorphic and isometric immersions (Kähler immersions) $h_1: S\to M_1$ and $h_2: S\to M_2$. Moreover, two Kähler manifolds $M_1$ and $M_2$ are said to be {\em weakly relatives} if there exist two locally isometric (not necessarily holomorphic) Kähler manifolds $S_1$ and $S_2$ which admit two Kähler immersions into $M_1$ and $M_2$ respectively. The notions introduced are not equivalent. Our main results in this paper are Theorem 1.2 and Theorem 1.4. In the first theorem we show that a complex bounded domain with its Bergman metric and a projective Kähler manifold (i.e. a projective manifold endowed with the restriction of the Fubini--Study metric) are not relatives. In the second theorem we prove that a Hermitian symmetric space of noncompact type and a projective Kähler manifold are not weakly relatives. The proof of the second result does not follows trivially from the first one. We also remark that the above results are of local nature, i.e. no assumptions are used about the compactness or completeness of the manifolds involved. As a corollary we get that Hermitian symmetric spaces of different types are not weakly relatives.

Compact Stein surfaces with boundary as branched covers of $\B^4$

We prove that Stein surfaces with boundary coincide up to orientation preserving diffeomorphisms with simple branched coverings of $\B^4$ whose branch set is a positive braided surface. As a consequence, we have that a smooth oriented 3-manifold is Stein fillable iff it has a positive open-book decomposition.
