Global hypoellipticity of the Kohn-Laplacian $\Box_b$ on pseudoconvex CR manifolds (1012.5906v2)
Published 29 Dec 2010 in math.CV and math.AP
Abstract: Let $X$ be a complex manifold and $M\subset X$ a compact, smooth, pseudoconvex CR manifold of dimension $2n-1$. (Here $n\ge 3$ or, in case $n=2$, it is made the extra assumption that $\dib_b$ has closed range on functions.) Assume that there exists a strictly CR-plurisubharmonic function in a neighborhood of $M$ in $X$. In this situation, there are here proved \begin{enumerate} \item[(i)] The global existence of $C\infty$ solutions to the tangential Cauchy-Riemann operator $\dib_b$. \item[(ii)] The global hypoellipticity of the Kohn-Laplacian $\Box_b$, under the additional condition of "weak Property (P)". \end{enumerate}
