On Locally Symmetrie Homogeneous Domains of Completely Reducible Linear Lie Groups.
We study the properties of the group Aut(D) of all biholomorphic transformations of a bounded circular domain D in containing the origin. We characterize the set of all possible roots for the Lie algebra of Aut(D). There exists an n-element set P such that any root is of the form α or -α or α-β for suitable α,β ∈ P.
In contrast with the integrable case there exist infinitely many non-integrable homogeneous almost complex manifolds which are strongly pseudoconvex at each boundary point. All such manifolds are equivalent to the Siegel half space endowed with some linear almost complex structure.We prove that there is no relatively compact strongly pseudoconvex representation of these manifolds. Finally we study the upper semi-continuity of the automorphism group of some hyperbolic strongly pseudoconvex almost...
Let Ω be the spectral unit ball of Mₙ(ℂ), that is, the set of n × n matrices with spectral radius less than 1. We are interested in classifying the automorphisms of Ω. We know that it is enough to consider the normalized automorphisms of Ω, that is, the automorphisms F satisfying F(0) = 0 and F'(0) = I, where I is the identity map on Mₙ(ℂ). The known normalized automorphisms are conjugations. Is every normalized automorphism a conjugation? We show that locally, in a neighborhood of a matrix with...
To a pair of a Lie group and an open elliptic convex cone in its Lie algebra one associates a complex semigroup which permits an action of by biholomorphic mappings. In the case where is a vector space is a complex reductive group. In this paper we show that such semigroups are always Stein manifolds, that a biinvariant domain is Stein is and only if it is of the form , with convex, that each holomorphic function on extends to the smallest biinvariant Stein domain containing ,...
Let be a real symmetric space and the corresponding decomposition of the Lie algebra. To each open -invariant domain consisting of real ad-diagonalizable elements, we associate a complex manifold which is a curved analog of a tube domain with base , and we have a natural action of by holomorphic mappings. We show that is a Stein manifold if and only if is convex, that the envelope of holomorphy is schlicht and that -invariant plurisubharmonic functions correspond to convex -invariant...
For large classes of complex Banach spaces (mainly operator spaces) we consider orbits of finite rank elements under the group of linear isometries. These are (in general) real-analytic submanifolds of infinite dimension but of finite CR-codimension. We compute the polynomial convex hull of such orbits explicitly and show as main result that every continuous CR-function on has a unique extension to the polynomial convex hull which is holomorphic in a certain sense. This generalizes to infinite...
We prove that the one-parameter group of holomorphic automorphisms induced on a strictly geometrically bounded domain by a biholomorphism with a model domain is parabolic. This result is related to the Greene-Krantz conjecture and more generally to the classification of domains having a non compact automorphisms group. The proof relies on elementary estimates on the Kobayashi pseudo-metric.
We give a complete description of the boundary behaviour of the generalized hypergeometric functions, introduced by Faraut and Koranyi, on Cartan domains of rank 2. The main tool is a new integral representation for some spherical polynomials, which may be of independent interest.
