Percolation of Estimates for ∂¯ by the Method of Alternating Projections

The method of alternating projections is used to examine how regularity of operators associated to the ∂ ¯ -Neumann problem percolates up the ∂ ¯ -complex. The approach revolves around operator identities—rather than estimates—that hold on any Lipschitz domain in C n , not necessarily bounded or pse...

Description
Summary:The method of alternating projections is used to examine how regularity of operators associated to the ∂ ¯ -Neumann problem percolates up the ∂ ¯ -complex. The approach revolves around operator identities—rather than estimates—that hold on any Lipschitz domain in C n , not necessarily bounded or pseudoconvex. We show that a geometric rate of convergence in von Neumann’s alternating projection algorithm, applied to two basic projection operators, is equivalent to ∂ ¯ having closed range. This implies that compactness of the ∂ ¯ -Neumann operator percolates up the ∂ ¯ -complex whenever ∂ ¯ has closed range at the corresponding form levels.
