Degenerate real hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{C}^2$ with few automorphisms

Abstract

We introduce new biholomorphic invariants for real-analytic hypersurfaces in 2-dimensional complex space and show how they can be used to show that a hypersurface possesses few automorphisms. We give conditions, in terms of the new invariants, guaranteeing that the stability group is finite, and give (sharp) bounds on the cardinality of the stability group in this case. We also give a sufficient condition for the stability group to be trivial. The main technical tool developed in this paper is a complete (formal) normal form for a certain class of hypersurfaces. As a byproduct, a complete classification, up to biholomorphic equivalence, of the finite type hypersurfaces in this class is obtained.

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 $α\geq1.$
