The \(\bar\partial\)-Cauchy problem and nonexistence of Lipschitz Levi-flat hypersurfaces in \(\mathbb{C}P^n\) with \(n \geq 3\) (Q883111): Difference between revisions

A Lipschitz hypersurface is a hypersurface which locally is the graph of a Lipschitz function. A Lipschitz (or \(\mathcal{C}^1\)) hypersurface is said to be Levi-flat if it is locally foliated by cmplex manifolds of complex dimension \(n-1.\) In this paper the \(\overline{\partial}\)-Neumann operator is used to show that there exist no Lipschitz Levi-flat hypersurfaces in \(\mathbb{C}P^n\) for \(n\geq 3,\) which removes the smoothness requirement used in an earlier paper of \textit{Y.-T. Siu} [Ann. Math. (2) 151, No. 3, 1217--1243 (2000; Zbl 0980.53065)]. The authors use the \(L^2 \) \(\overline{\partial}\)-Cauchy problem with weights and the equivalence of the weighted spaces with the Sobolev spaces.
