Resolvent of the Laplacian on strictly pseudoconvex domains (Q1181078)

The authors present a constructive approach to describe, in a very precise way, regularity properties of the Poisson operator of the Laplacean \(\Delta g\) of a complete Kähler metric given by \(g_ n\) of a smooth strictly pseudoconvex domain \(\mathbb{C}^ n\). More precisely, it is proved that a modified resolvent family of \(\Delta_ g\) belongs to a class of pseudodifferentials. The situation is abstracted from a ``canonical'' \(\perp\)-form \(\theta\) of the contact structure of the boundary to a special type of metric called \(\theta\)-metric, on a \(C^ \infty\) compact manifold with boundary, and so by considering an appropriate space of pseudo differential operators the analysis is carried on. --- Recently, by the second author [Int. Math. Res. Not. 1992, No. 3, 51-61 (1992; Zbl 0754.58035)], an independent presentation of the theory of conormal distributions for a manifold with corners is given.
