In this paper, we prove some results on bi-Hölder extensions not only for biholomorphisms but also for more general Kobayashi metric quasi-isometries between the domains. Furthermore, we establish the Gehring–Hayman type theorems on certain complex domains which play an important role through the paper. Then by applying the above results, we show the bi-Hölder equivalence between the Euclidean boundary and the Gromov boundary of bounded convex domains which are Gromov hyperbolic with respect to their Kobayashi metrics.

We show that Thurston’s skinning maps of Teichmüller space have finite fibers. The proof centers around a study of two subvarieties of the $${{\rm SL}_2(\mathbb{C})}$$ character variety of a surface—one associated with complex projective structures, and the other associated with a 3-manifold. Using the Morgan–Shalen compactification of the character variety and author’s results on holonomy limits of complex projective structures, we show that these subvarieties have only a discrete set of intersections.

Given a hypersurface coamoeba of a Laurent polynomial$f$, it is an open problem to describe the structure of the set of connected components of its complement. In this paper we approach this problem by introducing the lopsided coamoeba. We show that the closed lopsided coamoeba comes naturally equipped with an order map, i.e. a map from the set of connected components of its complement to a translated lattice inside the zonotope of a Gale dual of the point configuration $\operatorname{supp}(f)$ . Under a natural assumption, this map is a bijection. Finally we use this map to obtain new results concerning coamoebas of polynomials of small codimension.

Let $X$ be an abstract not necessarily compact orientable CR manifold of dimension $2n-1$, $n\geqslant2$, and let $L^k$ be the $k$-th tensor power of a CR complex line bundle $L$ over $X$. Given $q\in\set{0,1,\ldots,n-1}$, let $\Box^{(q)}_{b,k}$ be the Gaffney extension of Kohn Laplacian for $(0,q)$ forms with values in $L^k$. For $\lambda\geq0$, let $\Pi^{(q)}_{k,\leq\lambda}:=E((-\infty,\lambda])$, where $E$ denotes the spectral measure of $\Box^{(q)}_{b,k}$. In this work, we prove that $\Pi^{(q)}_{k,\leq k^{-N_0}}F^*_k$, $F_k\Pi^{(q)}_{k,\leq k^{-N_0}}F^*_k$, $N_0\geq1$, admit asymptotic expansions with respect to $k$ on the non-degenerate part of the characteristic manifold of $\Box^{(q)}_{b,k}$, where $F_k$ is some kind of microlocal cut-off function. Moreover, we show that $F_k\Pi^{(q)}_{k,\leq0}F^*_k$ admits a full asymptotic expansion with respect to $k$ if $\Box^{(q)}_{b,k}$ has small spectral gap property with respect to $F_k$ and $\Pi^{(q)}_{k,\leq0}$ is $k$-negligible away the diagonal with respect to $F_k$. By using these asymptotics, we establish almost Kodaira embedding theorems on CR manifolds and Kodaira embedding theorems on CR manifolds with transversal CR $S^1$ action.
