Regularity of the Bergman projection and duality of holomorphic function spaces (Q791723): Difference between revisions

Suppose D is a smooth bounded pseudoconvex domain in \({\mathbb{C}}^ n\). Let \(A^{\infty}(D)\) denote the space of holomorphic functions on D in \(C^{\infty}(\bar D)\), and let \(A^{-\infty}(D)\) denote the space of holomorphic functions on D bounded by a constant times some negative power of the distance to the boundary. It is proved that the Bergman projection associated to D maps \(C^{\infty}(\bar D)\) into itself if and only if \(A^{\infty}(D)\) and \(A^{-\infty}(D)\) are mutually dual via a natural extension of the \(L^ 2\) inner product. It is also shown that \(A^{\infty}(D)\) is dense in \(A^{-\infty}(D)\) whenever D is smooth, bounded, and pseudoconvex. Similar results have been obtained independently by \textit{G. Komatsu} [Tôhoku Math. J., II. Ser. 36, 453- 467 (1984; Zbl 0533.32003)].
