On effective existence of symmetric differentials of complex hyperbolic space forms

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: For a noncompact complex hyperbolic space form of finite volume X=mathbbBn/Gamma, we consider the problem of producing symmetric differentials vanishing at infinity on the Mumford compactification overlineX of X similar to the case of producing cusp forms on hyperbolic Riemann surfaces. We introduce a natural geometric measurement which measures the size of the infinity overlineX−X called `canonical radius' of a cusp of Gamma. The main result in the article is that there is a constant r∗=r∗(n) depending only on the dimension, so that if the canonical radii of all cusps of Gamma are larger than r∗, then there exist symmetric differentials of overlineX vanishing at infinity. As a corollary, we show that the cotangent bundle ToverlineX is ample modulo the infinity if moreover the injectivity radius in the interior of overlineX is larger than some constant d∗=d∗(n) which depends only on the dimension.


Let \(X=\mathbb{B}^n/\Gamma\) be a noncompact complex hyperbolic space form of finite volume. The author considers the problem of producing symmetric differentials vanishing at infinity on the Mumford compactification \(\bar{X}\) of \(X\) similar to the case of producing cusp forms on hyperbolic Riemann surfaces. He introduces a natural geometric measurement which measures the size of the infinity \(\bar{X}-X\) called canonical radius of a cusp of \(\Gamma\). The main theorem is that there is a constant \(r^\ast =r^\ast(n)\) depending only on the dimension, so that if the canonical radii of all cusps of \(\gamma\) are larger than \(r^\ast\), then there exist symmetric differentials of \(\bar{X}\) vanishing at infinity. As a corollary, it is shown that the cotangent bundle \(T_{\bar{X}}\) is ample modulo the infinity if moreover the injectivity radius in the interior of \(\bar{X}\) is larger than some constant \(d^\ast =d^\ast(n)\), which depends only on the dimension.
