Symplectic geometry and the uniqueness of Grauert tubes

Abstract

A compact real analytic Riemannian manifold M admits a canonical complexification with plurisubharmonic exhaustion function satisfying the homogeneous complex Monge-Ampere equation, called a Grauert tube. From the point of view of complex analysis, several authors have considered whether a given complex manifold can arise in more than one way from this construction. We show that given a compact M and a finite exhaustion, the underlying Riemannian structure is unique. The proof uses the technique of holomorphic disks spanning two exact Lagrangian submanifolds of the cotangent bundle of M, and Schwarz reflection.

Log canonical singularities of plurisubharmonic functions

A plurisubharmonic weight is \emph{log canonical} if it is at the critical point of turning non-integrable. Given a log canonical plurisubharmonic weight, we show that locally there always exists a log canonical `holomorphic' weight having the same non-integrable locus. The proof uses the theory of quasimonomial valuations developed by Jonsson-Mustaţă and Xu, as well as the minimal model program over complex analytic spaces due to Fujino and Lyu-Murayama. As a consequence, we obtain that the non-integrable locus is seminormal.

Sobolev homeomorphisms and Jordan curves with positive area

Each homeomorphic parametrization of a Jordan curve via the unit circle $\mathbb{S}\subset \mathbb{S}^2$ extends to a homeomorphism of the entire $\mathbb{S}^2.$ We show that there exists a Jordan curve of positive area whose every parametrization via $\mathbb{S}$ admits a homeomorphic extension that has $p$-Sobolev regularity on $\mathbb{S}^2$ for all exponents $1\le p<2 .$ This is obtained via a new sharp extension result for the case of $p<2.$

Disproof of a conjecture of Ruscheweyh et al. on universal convexity of Ramanujan generating function

We disprove a conjecture of Ruscheweyh, Salinas and Sugawa concerning the universal convexity of the normalized generating function associated with the Ramanujan sequence $θ(n).$ More precisely, we prove that the function \[ σ(z)=\frac{1}{θ(1)-1/3}\sum_{n\geq1}(θ(n)-1/3)z^{n} \] is not universally convex on the slit domain $\mathbb{C}\backslash[1,\infty).$ The proof uses Watson\textquoteright s integral representation of $θ(n),$ asymptotic estimates for an auxiliary function $h,$ and the representation of derivatives of universally convex functions via logarithmic integrals. As a general extension of this result, we also show that the generalized Ramanujan generating function \[ σ_α(z)=\frac{1}{θ(1)-1/3}\sum_{n\geq1}(θ(n)-1/3)\frac{z^{n}}{n^α} \] is universally convex if and only if $α\geq1.$
