Weighted Sobolev $L^{p}$ estimates for homotopy operators on strictly pseudoconvex domains with $C^{2}$ boundary (1907.00264v1)

Abstract: We derive estimates in a weighted Sobolev space $W^{k,p}_{\mu}(D)$ for a homotopy operator on a bounded strictly pseudoconvex domain $D$ of $C^2$ boundary in ${\C}^n$. As a result, we show that given any $2n < p < \infty$, $k > 1$, $q \geq 1$, and a $\dbar$-closed $(0,q)$ form $\var$ of class $W^{k,p}(D)$, there exist a solution $u$ to $\dbar u = \var$ such that $u \in W^{k,p}_{\yh-\ve}(D)$ for any $\ve > 0$. If $k=1$, then we can take $p$ to be any value between $1$ and $\infty$. In other words, the solution gains almost $\yh$-derivative in a suitable sense.
