ESI Senior Research Fellow Program, spring term 2005
The L2-Sobolev theory of the d-bar-Neumann problem
Course of advanced graduate lectures by
Professor Emil Straube (Texas A&M University)
lectures: May 18, 20, 24, 25 and June 1, 3 at 13:00 - 15:00 (to be continued in fall term)
seminar: tba
This course treats the L2-Sobolev regularity theory of the
d-bar-Neumann problem on bounded pseudoconvex domains in complex
Euclidean space, with an emphasis on global regularity (in
L2-Sobolev spaces) and compactness. Starting with some classical
results from the sixties which form the bedrock of the theory, the
course will lead to current developments in the area.
A brief outline is as follows: the L2 existence theory, strongly pseudoconvex
domains, regularity in general pseudoconvex domains, finite type and
subelliptic estimates, compactness, global regularity. Except for the
chapter on finite type and subelliptic estimates, I plan to give
complete proofs of the main results. The course will be at the
advanced graduate level; in particular, a solid background in real,
functional, and complex analysis (including basic several complex
variables) is expected.
