On the <i>L</i>² cohomology of complex spaces II (Q4025580)

This is a continuation of part I of this paper [the author, Math. Z. 209, No. 4, 519-530 (1992; Zbl 0759.58002)], extending the classical \(L^ 2\) harmonic theory to complex spaces with arbitrary singularities. Theorem 1. Let \(X\) be a compact Kähler space and \(H^ r_{(2)}(X)\) its \(r\)-th \(L^ 2\) cohomology group. Then every element in \(H^ r_{(2)}(X)\) is uniquely representable as a sum \(\sum_{p+q=r}u^{p,q}\) where \(u^{p,q}\) are \(L^ 2\) harmonic forms of type \((p,q)\). In particular \(H^ r_{(2)}(X) = \bigoplus_{p+q=r} H^{p,q}_{(2),d}(X)\) denotes the subspace of \(H^ r_{(2)}(X)\) consisting of the elements which are representable by \((p,q)\) forms. Moreover, the complex conjugate of \(H^{p,q}_{(2),d}(X)\) is equal to \(H^{q,p}_{(2),d}(X)\).
