We give an elementary proof of the formula χ($K$^{$n$}A)=$n$^{3}σ($n$) for the Euler characteristic of the generalized Kummer variety$K$^{$n$}$A$, where σ($n$) denotes the sum of divisors function.

We consider subordination chains of simply connected domains with smooth boundaries in the complex plane. Such chains admit Hamiltonian and Lagrangian interpretations through the Löwner–Kufarev evolution equations. The action functional is constructed and its time variation is obtained. It represents the infinitesimal version of the action of the Virasoro–Bott group over the space of analytic univalent functions.

We describe the behavior of certain strictly plurisubharmonic functions near some real hypersurfaces in ℂ^{$n$},$n$≥3. Given a hypersurface we study continuous plurisubharmonic functions which are zero on the hypersurface and have Monge–Ampère mass greater than one in a one-sided neighborhood of the hypersurface. If we can find complex curves which have sufficiently high contact order with the hypersurface then the plurisubharmonic functions we study cannot be globally Lipschitz in the one-sided neighborhood.

We prove that the weak order on an infinite Coxeter group contains infinite antichains if and only if the group is not affine.

Let X and Y be two complex manifolds, let$D$⊂$X$and$G$⊂$Y$be two nonempty open sets, let$A$(resp.$B$) be an open subset of ∂$D$(resp. ∂$G$), and let$W$be the 2-fold cross (($D$∪$A$)×$B$)∪($A$×($B$∪$G$)). Under a geometric condition on the boundary sets$A$and$B$, we show that every function locally bounded, separately continuous on$W$, continuous on$A$×$B$, and separately holomorphic on ($A$×$G$)∪($D$×$B$) “extends” to a function continuous on a “domain of holomorphy” $\widehat{W}$ and holomorphic on the interior of $\widehat{W}$ .
