Trends in Mathematics
Trends in Mathematics is a series devoted to the publication of volumes arising from conferences and lecture series focusing on a particular topic from any area of mathematics.
Its aim is to make current developments available to the community as rapidly as possible
without compromise to quality and to archive these for reference.
Proposals for volumes can be sent to the Mathematics Editor at either
Springer Basel AG
Birkhäuser
P.O. Box 133
CH-4010 Basel
Switzerland
or
Birkhauser Boston
233 Spring Street
New York, NY 10013
USA
Material submitted for publication must be screened and prepared as follows:
All contributions should undergo a reviewing process similar to that carried out by journals
and be checked for correct use of language which, as a rule, is English. Articles without
proofs, or which do not contain any significantly new results, should be rejected. High
quality survey papers, however, are welcome.
We expect the organizers to deliver manuscripts in a form that is essentially ready for
direct reproduction. Any version of TeX is acceptable, but the entire collection of files must
be in one particular dialect of TeX and unified according to simple instructions available
from Birkhäuser.
Furthermore, in order to guarantee the timely appearance of the proceedings it is essential
that the final version of the entire material be submitted no later than one year after the
conference. The total number of pages should not exceed 350. The first-mentioned author
of each article will receive 25 free offprints. To the participants of the congress the book
will be offered at a special rate.

Preface
Norbert Hungerbühler
The idea to organize a conference in honour of Linda Rothschild emerged in 2006.
This idea began to substantiate in 2007 when the Swiss Mathematical Society assigned the traditional Spring Meeting to the University of Fribourg. An organizing
committee was quickly formed:
Organizing committee

Frank Kutzschebauch
Bernhard Lamel
Francine Meylan
Nordine Mir
University of Fribourg, Switzerland
University of Berne, Switzerland
University of Vienna, Austria
University of Fribourg, Switzerland
Université de Rouen, France
In order to ensure a high-quality conference program, the search for a scientific committee began. Soon after, a distinguished group was found who started
working right away:
Scientific committee

Franc Forstnerič
Joseph J. Kohn
Emil J. Straube

Only a little while later it became clear that the subject and the top-class
speakers who agreed to participate in the conference called for a proceedings volume to make the presented results available shortly after the conference. This
project was carried out under the direction of the editorial board:

Focus on youth
The aim of the conference was to gather worldwide leading scientists, and to offer
the occasion to PhD students and postdocs to come into contact with them. The
committees explicitly encouraged young scientists, doctoral students and postdocs
to initiate scientific contact and to aim at an academic career. The topic of the
conference was apparently very attractive for young scientists, and the event an
ideal platform to promote national and international doctoral students and postdocs. This aspect became manifest in a poster session where junior researchers
presented their results.
The conference was intended to have a strong component in instruction of
PhD students: Three mini courses with introductory character were held by Pengfei
Guan, Mei-Chi Shaw and Ngaiming Mok. These three mini courses have been very
well received by a large audience and were framed by the series of plenary lectures
presenting newest results and techniques.
The participation of junior female researchers, PhD students and mathematicians from developing countries has been encouraged in addition by offering grants
for traveling and accommodation.
The subject
The conference Complex Analysis 2008 has been devoted to the subject of Several
Complex Variables and Connections with PDEs and Geometry. These three main
subject areas of the conference have shown their deep relations, and how techniques
from each of these fields can influence the others. The conference has stimulated
further interaction between these areas.
The conference was held in honor of Prof. Linda Rothschild who is one of the
most influential contributors of the subject during the last decades. A particular
aim was to encourage female students to pursue an academic career. In fact, female
mathematicians have been well represented among the speakers, in the organizing
committee and in the poster sessions.
Preface
ix
Several Complex Variables is a beautiful example of a field requiring a wide
range of techniques coming from diverse areas in Mathematics. In the last decades,
many major breakthroughs depended in particular on methods coming from Partial Differential Equations and Differential and Algebraic Geometry. In turn, Several Complex Variables provided results and insights which have been of fundamental importance to these fields. This is in particular exemplified by the subject of
Cauchy-Riemann geometry, which concerns itself both with the tangential CauchyRiemann equations and the unique mixture of real and complex geometry that real
objects in a complex space enjoy. CR geometry blends techniques from algebraic
geometry, contact geometry, complex analysis and PDEs; as a unique meeting
point for some of these subjects, it shows evidence of the possible synergies of a
fusion of the techniques from these fields.
The interplay between PDE and Complex Analysis has its roots in Hans
Lewy’s famous example of a locally non solvable PDE. More recent work on PDE
has been similarly inspired by examples from CR geometry. The application of
analytic techniques in algebraic geometry has a long history; especially in recent
¯
years, the analysis of the ∂-operator
has been a crucial tool in this field. The
¯
∂-operator
remains one of the most important examples of a partial differential
operator for which regularity of solutions under boundary constraints have been
extensively studied. In that respect, CR geometry as well as algebraic geometry
have helped to understand the subtle aspects of the problem, which is still at the
heart of current research.
Summarizing, our conference has brought together leading researchers at the
intersection of these fields, and offered a platform to discuss the most recent developments and to encourage further interactions between these mathematicians.
It was also a unique opportunity for younger people to get acquainted with the
current research problems of these areas.
Organization
The conference was at the same time the 2008 Spring Meeting of the Swiss Mathematical Society. The event has profited from the organizational structures of the
SMS and the embedding in the mathematical community of Switzerland. The University of Fribourg has proven to be the appropriate place for this international
event because of its tradition in Complex Analysis, the central geographic location,
and its adequate infrastructure. In turn, its reputation and that of the region has
benefited from this conference.
The conference has been announced internationally in the most important
conference calendars and in several journals. Moreover, the event has been advertised by posters in numerous mathematics institutes worldwide, by e-mails and in
the regular announcements of the Swiss Mathematical Society.

Extended Curriculum Vitae of
Linda Preiss Rothschild
Linda Rothschild was born February 28, 1945, in Philadelphia, PA. She received her undergraduate degree, magna
cum laude, from the University of Pennsylvania in 1966 and
her PhD in mathematics from MIT in 1970. Her PhD thesis was “On the Adjoint Action of a Real Semisimple Lie
Group”. She held positions at Tufts University, Columbia
University, the Institute for Advanced Study, and Princeton University before being appointed an associate professor
of mathematics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in
1976. She was promoted to full professor in 1979. Since 1983 she has been professor
of mathematics at the University of California at San Diego, where she is now a
Distinguished Professor.
Rothschild has worked in the areas of Lie groups, partial differential equations and harmonic analysis, and the analytic and geometric aspects of several
complex variables. She has published over 80 papers in these areas. Rothschild
was awarded an Alfred P. Sloan Fellowship in 1976. In 2003 she won the Stefan Bergman Prize from the American Mathematical Society (jointly with Salah
Baouendi). The citation read in part:
“The Bergman Prize was awarded to Professors Salah Baouendi and
Linda Rothschild for their joint and individual work in complex analysis. In addition to many important contributions to complex analysis
they have also done first rate work in the theory of partial differential
equations. Their recent work is centered on the study of CR manifolds to
which they and their collaborators have made fundamental contributions.
Rothschild, in a joint paper with E. Stein, introduced Lie group methods to prove Lp and Hölder estimates for the sum of squares operators
as well as the boundary Kohn Laplacian for real hypersurfaces. In later
joint work with L. Corwin and B. Helfer, she proved analytic hypoellipticity for a class of first-order systems. She also proved the existence of
a family of weakly pseudoconvex hypersurfaces for which the boundary
Kohn Laplacian is hypoelliptic but does not satisfy maximal L2 estimates.”

Extended Curriculum Vitae of Linda Preiss Rothschild
In 2005, Rothschild was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts
and Sciences, and in 2006 she was an invited speaker at the International Congress
of Mathematics in Madrid.
Rothschild served as President of the Association for Women in Mathematics
from 1983 to 1985 and as Vice-President of the American Mathematical Society
from 1985 to 1987. She served on the editorial committees of the Transactions of
the AMS and Contemporary Mathematics. She is also an editorial board member
of Communications in Partial Differential Equations and co-founder and co-editorin-chief of Mathematical Research Letters. She has served on many professional
committees, including several AMS committees, NSF panels, and an organization
committee for the Special Year in Several Complex Variables at the Mathematical
Sciences Research Institute. She presented the 1997 Emmy Noether Lecture for
the AWM. Rothschild has a keen interest in encouraging young women who want
to study mathematics. A few years ago she helped establish a scholarship for
unusually talented junior high school girls to accelerate their mathematical training
by participating in a summer program.
