Strongly pseudoconvex CR manifolds are boundaries of Stein varieties with isolated normal singularities.We prove that any nonconstant CR morphism between two (2n.1)-dimensional strongly pseudoconvex CR manifolds lying in an n-dimensional Stein variety with isolated singularities are necessarily a CR biholomorphism. As a corollary, we prove that any nonconstant self map of (2n . 1)-dimensional strongly pseudoconvex CR manifold is a CR automorphism. We also prove that a finite ′etale covering map between two resolutions of isolated normal singularities must be an isomorphism.

We survey our recent new results on the geometry of Teichmuller and moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces and Calabi-Yau manifolds.

We study the rigidity results for self-shrinkers in Euclidean space by restriction of the image under the Gauss map. The geometric properties of the target manifolds carry into effect. In the self-shrinking hypersurface situation Theorem 3.1and Theorem 3.2 not only improve the previous results, but also are optimal. In higher codimensional case, using geometric properties of the Grassmannian manifolds (the target manifolds of the Gauss map) we give a rigidity theorem for self-shrinking graphs.

We give simple conditions on an ambient manifold that are necessary and sufficient for isoperimetric inequalities to hold.
