Abstract

We prove here new results about transversality and related geometric properties of a holomorphic, formal, or CR mapping, sending one generic submanifold of $\bC^N$ into another. One of our main results is that a finite mapping is transversal to the target manifold provided this manifold is of finite type. For the case of hypersurfaces, transversality in this context was proved by Baouendi and the second author in 1990. The general case of generic manifolds of higher codimension, which we treat in this paper, had remained an open problem since then. Applications of this result include a sufficient condition for a finite mapping to be a local diffeomorphism.

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 $α\geq1.$
