W1 vanishing on bounded Lipschitz pseudoconvex domains in CP^n

Determine whether the Sobolev cohomology group H^{0,1}_{W^1}(Ω) vanishes for every bounded pseudoconvex domain Ω ⊂ CP^n with Lipschitz boundary.

Background

Kohn’s global regularity theorem ensures Ws estimates for s > 0 on smooth bounded pseudoconvex domains, and W1 estimates are known for C2 boundaries. However, extending such estimates to Lipschitz boundaries would generalize these results significantly.

The authors explicitly pose the vanishing of H{0,1}_{W1}(Ω) as a problem and state that, although partial results exist, the general Lipschitz case remains unsolved.

References

Determine if $$H{0,1}_{W1}(\Omega)=0.$$ But it remains unsolved for general Lipschitz domains.
