Abstract:
In the works of Darboux and Walsh, it was remarked that a one-to-one self-mapping of which sends convex sets to convex ones is affine. It can be remarked also that a -diffeomorphism between two domains in , , which sends pseudoconvex hypersurfaces to pseudoconvex ones is either holomorphic or antiholomorphic. In this paper we are interested in the self-mappings of which send convex hypersurfaces to pseudoconvex ones. Their characterization is the following: A - diffeomorphism (where are domains) sends convex hypersurfaces to pseudoconvex ones if and only if the inverse map is weakly pluriharmonic, i.e., if it satisfies some nice second order PDE very close to . In fact all pluriharmonic 's do satisfy this equation, but there are also other solutions.
