It is here proved that if a pseudoconvex CR manifold $M$ of hypersurface type has a certain "type", that we quantify by a vanishing rate $F$ at a submanifold of CR dimension $0$, then $\Box_b$ "gains $f^2$ derivatives" where $f$ is defined…

Let $\Omega\subset\C^n$ be a bounded smooth pseudoconvex domain. We show that compactness of the complex Green operator $G_{q}$ on $(0,q)$-forms on $b\Omega$ implies compactness of the $\bar{\partial}$-Neumann operator $N_{q}$ on $\Omega$.…

Let $M$ be a compact, pseudoconvex-oriented, $(2n+1)$-dimensional, abstract CR manifold of hypersurface type, $n\geq 2$. We prove the following: (i) If $M$ admits a strictly CR-plurisubharmonic function on $(0,q_0)$-forms, then the complex…

We introduce a class of embedded CR manifolds satisfying a geometric condition that we call weak $Y(q)$. For such manifolds, we show that dbar-b has closed range on $L^2$ and that the complex Green operator is continuous on $L^2$. Our…

The purpose of this paper is to establish sufficient conditions for closed range estimates on $(0,q)$-forms, for some fixed $q$, $1 \leq q \leq n-1$, for $\bar\partial_b$ in both $L^2$ and $L^2$-Sobolev spaces in embedded, not necessarily…

The complex Green operator $\mathcal{G}$ on CR manifolds is the inverse of the Kohn-Laplacian $\square_b$ on the orthogonal complement of its kernel. In this note, we prove Schatten and Sobolev estimates for $\mathcal{G}$ on the unit sphere…

In this paper we prove the basic facts for pluricomplex Green functions on manifolds. The main goal is to establish properties of complex manifolds that make them analogous to relatively compact or hyperconvex domains in Stein manifolds.…
