Compactness of the $\overline{\partial}$-Neumann operator on the intersection of two domains (1408.6134v1)

Abstract: Assume that $\Omega_{1}$ and $\Omega_{2}$ are two smooth bounded pseudoconvex domains in $\mathbb{C}^{2}$ that intersect (real) transversely, and that $\Omega_{1} \cap \Omega_{2}$ is a domain (i.e. is connected). If the $\overline{\partial}$-Neumann operators on $\Omega_{1}$ and on $\Omega_{2}$ are compact, then so is the $\overline{\partial}$-Neumann operator on $\Omega_{1} \cap \Omega_{2}$. The corresponding result holds for the $\overline{\partial}$-Neumann operators on $(0,n-1)$-forms on domains in $\mathbb{C}^{n}$.
