On the existence of Kobayashi and Bergman metrics for model domains

The author studies the Kobayashi and Bergman metrics for pseudoconvex domains of the form \[ \mathfrak{A}=\{(z,w)\in \mathbb{C}^{2}\colon v>F(z,u)\}, \] where \(w=u+iv\) and \(F\) is a continuous function on \(\mathbb{C}\times \mathbb{R}\). These domains are called {\em model domains}. The main theorem of the paper says that for such a pseudoconvex domain the following conditions are equivalent: \begin{itemize} \item[(i)] The domain \(\mathfrak{A}\) is Kobayashi hyperbolic. \item[(ii)] The domain \(\mathfrak{A}\) is Brody hyperbolic. \item[(iii)] The domain \(\mathfrak{A}\) possesses a Bergman metric. \item[(iv)] The domain \(\mathfrak{A}\) possesses a bounded smooth strictly plurisubharmonic function, i.e., the core of the domain \(c(\mathfrak{U})\) is empty. \item[(v)] The boundary \(\partial\mathfrak{A}\) of \(\mathfrak{A}\) cannot be represented as follows: \[ \partial\mathfrak{A}=\bigcup_{t\in \mathbb{R}}\Gamma(\mathcal{H}+(t+i\Theta(t))), \] where \(\mathcal{H}\) is an entire function, \(\Theta\colon \mathbb{R}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}\) is a continuous function and \(\Gamma(\mathcal{H}+(t+i\Theta(t)))\) denotes the graph of the function \(w=\mathcal{H}(z)+(t+i\Theta(t))\). \end{itemize} The author also remarks that the analogue of the above theorem is not true for model domains in \(\mathbb{C}^{n}\) if \(n\geq 3\).
