Early
unpublished papers in hyperbolic geometry. Which have remained,
for some reason, unpublished. These are pdf files of scans of old typed
papers....they're from before I learned TeX. Displayed at full size
they are quite readable.
Joint papers with Richard
B.
Melrose:
We compute the index of a fourier integral operator defined by a
contact
diffeomorphism of a contact manifold. In MRL. Contact
degree and the index of Fourier integral
operators.
This is the long lost paper, Shrinking tubes
and the d-bar Neumann problem.
It's filled with tasty morsels, but it not recommeded for a single
sitting.
It contains a proof of the "The Boutet de Monvel-Guillemin" conjecture
as
well as the complete metric approach to the Bergmann kernel and a study
of the d-bar Neumann problem on shrinking Grauert tubes.
Joint papers with Gennadi
Henkin:
We consider strict complex cobordisms and embeddability for
3d CR-manifolds.
This paper includes an appendix by Bruno De Oliveira. In Proceedings of
the
Steklov Inst. (Corrected version of April 17, 2006) Can a good manifold come to a bad end?
This is a paper about embedding pseudoconcave manifolds and the stability of the algebra of CR-functions under deformations. In Acta Math. Stability of embeddings for pseudoconcave surfaces and their boundaries

Notes from lectures I gave at
CIRM, in
Luminy, France in June of 1999 on Toeplitz operators, index theorems

Contact
and CR-Manifolds
Notes from a lecture I gave in
December
1999 at the Conference on Several Complex Variables, Hayama, Japan. Filling pseudodoncave holes
A short paper correcting an
error in "A relative index on the space of embeddable CR-structures, I"
Ann. of Math. Erratum
Under the
same cohomologial hypotheses used in Stability of embeddings for
pseudoconcave surfaces and their boundaries,
I prove the conjecture that, among sufficiently small deformations of
the CR-structure on a strictly pseudoconvex, 3-manifold,
the relative index assumes only finitely many different values. Appears
in JIMJ. Geometric bounds on the relative
index

regions. Convex regions, shadows and the Gauss
map

boundary conditions for the Spin-C Dirac operator on a complex
manifold: A priori estimates for a subelliptic
Spin-C
Dirac operator
A little note on the
convergence of the Neumann series in higher norms with applications to
the Marchenko equation (in CPDE): The convergence
of the
Neumann series in higher
norms.
A little note comparing the
finite Fourier transform to the Fourier transform (in CPAM): How well does the finite Fourier transform
approximate the Fourier transform?
Two papers on a careful
analysis of subelliptic boundary conditions for the Spin-C Dirac
operator and gluing formulae for holomorphic Euler characteristics on
partitioned compact, complex manifolds (in the Annals of
Math.):
This is part III. I extend the
subelliptic boundary conditions for the Spin-C Dirac operator to Spin_C
manifolds with almost complex boundaries. This leads to an
Agranovich-Dynin formula and a proof of formula for the relative
between two generalized Szego projectors. The Atiyah-Weinstein, on the
index of Fourier integral operator defined by a contact transformation
is a special case. I also get a very beautiful formula for the relative
index between two classical Szego projectors defined by embeddable
CR-structures on a contact 3-manifold, (in the Annals of Math.).
An expository account of my
work on sub-elliptic boundary value problems for the Spin_C Dirac
operator. In PNAS.
