Abstract

We define weak Z(q)Z(q), a generalization of Z(q)Z(q) on bounded domains Ω\Omega in a Stein manifold MnM^n that suffices to prove closed range of ˉ\bar\partial. Under the hypothesis of weak Z(q)Z(q), we also show (i) that harmonic (0,q)(0,q)-forms are trivial and (ii) if Ω\partial\Omega satisfies weak Z(q)Z(q) and weak Z(n1q)Z(n-1-q), then \dbarb\dbar_b has closed range on (0,q)(0,q)-forms on Ω\partial\Omega. We provide examples to show that our condition contains examples that are excluded from (q1)(q-1)-pseudoconvexity and the authors' previous notion of weak Z(q)Z(q).
