Closed range of $\bar\partial$ in $L^2$-Sobolev spaces on unbounded domains in $\mathbb{C}^n$

Let $Ω\subset\mathbb{C}^n$ be a domain and $1 \leq q \leq n-1$ fixed. Our purpose in this article is to establish a general sufficient condition for the closed range of the Cauchy-Riemann operator $\bar\partial$ in appropriately weighted $L^2$-Sobolev spaces on $(0,q)$-forms. The domains we consider may be neither bounded nor pseudoconvex, and our condition is a generalization of the classical $Z(q)$ condition that we call weak $Z(q)$. We provide examples that explain the necessity of working in weighted spaces both for closed range in $L^2$ and, even more critically, in $L^2$-Sobolev spaces.

On Div-Curl for Higher Order

We present new examples of complexes of differential operators of order $k$ (any given positive integer) that satisfy div-curl and/or $L^1$-duality estimates.

Regularity equivalence of the Szegö projection and the complex Green operator

In this paper we prove that on a CR manifold of hypersurface type that satisfies the weak $Y(q)$ condition, the complex Green operator $G_q$ is exactly (globally) regular if and only if the Szegö projections $S_{q-1}, S_q$ and a third orthogonal projection $S'_{q+1}$ are exactly (globally) regular. The projection $S'_{q+1}$ is closely related to the Szegö projection $S_{q+1}$ and actually coincides with it if the space of harmonic $(0,q+1)$-forms is trivial. This result extends the important and by now classical result by H. Boas and E. Straube on the equivalence of the regularity of the $\bar\partial$-Neumann operator and the Bergman projections on a smoothly bounded pseudoconvex domain. We also prove an extension of this result to the case of bounded smooth domains satisfying the weak $Z(q)$ condition on a Stein manifold.

Compactness of the Complex Green Operator

Let $Ω\subset\C^n$ be a bounded smooth pseudoconvex domain. We show that compactness of the complex Green operator $G_{q}$ on $(0,q)$-forms on $bΩ$ implies compactness of the $\bar{\partial}$-Neumann operator $N_{q}$ on $Ω$. We prove that if $1 \leq q \leq n-2$ and $bΩ$ satisfies $(P_q)$ and $(P_{n-q-1})$, then $G_{q}$ is a compact operator (and so is $G_{n-1-q}$). Our method relies on a jump type formula to represent forms on the boundary, and we prove an auxiliary compactness result for an `annulus' between two pseudoconvex domains. Our results, combined with the known characterization of compactness in the $\bar{\partial}$-Neumann problem on locally convexifiable domains, yield the corresponding characterization of compactness of the complex Green operator(s) on these domains.
