The $\bar\partial$-problem on $Z(q)$-domains

Debraj Chakrabarti, Phillip S. Harrington, Andrew Raich

Abstract

Given a complex manifold containing a relatively compact $Z(q)$ domain, we give sufficient geometric conditions on the domain so that its $L^2$-cohomology in degree $(p,q)$ (known to be finite dimensional) vanishes. The condition consists of the existence of a smooth weight function in a neighborhood of the closure of the domain, where the complex Hessian of the weight has a prescribed number of eigenvalues of a particular sign, along with good interaction at the boundary of the Levi form with the complex Hessian, encoded in a subbundle of common positive directions for the two Hermitian forms.

The $\bar\partial$-problem on $Z(q)$-domains

Abstract

Given a complex manifold containing a relatively compact domain, we give sufficient geometric conditions on the domain so that its -cohomology in degree (known to be finite dimensional) vanishes. The condition consists of the existence of a smooth weight function in a neighborhood of the closure of the domain, where the complex Hessian of the weight has a prescribed number of eigenvalues of a particular sign, along with good interaction at the boundary of the Levi form with the complex Hessian, encoded in a subbundle of common positive directions for the two Hermitian forms.

Key Result

Theorem 1.2

Let $M$ be a complex manifold and let $\Omega\subset M$ be a smoothly bounded relatively compact domain, and let $1 \leq q \leq n-1.$ Suppose that the domain $\Omega$ satisfies condition $Z(q)$. Then the $\bar{\partial}$-operator on $(p,q)$-forms on $\Omega$ satisfies the Folland-Kohn basic estimate
