We survey some new and old uniqueness results for Hessian equations such as special Lagrangian equations, Monge-Ampere equations, and symmetric Hessian equations. In particular, a unified approach to quadratic asymptote of solutions over exterior domains--based on an "exterior" Evans-Krylov, corresponding to Allard-Almgren's...

We study variations of the Bergman kernel and their asymptotic behaviors at degeneration. For a holomorphic family of hyperelliptic nodal or cuspidal curves and their Jacobians, we announce our results on the Bergman kernel asymptotics near various singularities. For genus-two curves particularly, asymptotic formulas with precise coefficients...

We discuss general compactness results for Kahler-Einstein manifolds of negative scalar curvature and geometric Kahler-Einstein metrics on smoothable semi-log canonical models.    Joint with Differential Geometry Seminar.

It is a striking phenomenon of formal maps between real-analytic hypersurfaces that in many circumstances they actually converge. In recent work with Nordine Mir, we were able to characterise (in a suitable sense) divergent maps, leading to many new convergence results. We will discuss these recent results.

In this talk, we discuss the Diederich–Fornæss index in several complex variables. A domain Ω ⊂ Cn is said to be pseudoconvex if −log(−δ(z)) is plurisubharmonic in Ω, where δ is a signed distance function of Ω. The Diederich–Fornæss index has been introduced since 1977 as an...

In this talk, I will introduce our recent work on Gauss curvature flow with Xu-Jia Wang and Qi-Rui Li. In this work we study a contracting flow of closed, convex hypersurfaces in the Euclidean space $\R^{n+1}$ with the speed $f r^{\alpha} K$, where $K$ is the Gauss curvature, $r$ is the distance from the hypersurface to the origin, and \$...

In this talk, I will discuss the strengths and shortcomings of the Fourier transform as a tool to investigate the global analysis of PDEs. As part of this discussion, I will give various applications to problems in several complex variables and introduce a FBI transform as a more broadly applicable tool.
