The Henkin \(\overline{\partial }_b \)-homotopy formula [\textit{G. M. Henkin} (Khenkin), Russ. Math. Surv. 32, No. 3, 59--130 (1977); translation from Usp. Mat. Nauk 32, No. 3, 57--118 (1977; Zbl 0358.35057)] is generalized to domains \(\Omega =\{ \zeta \in \mathbb C^n: r(\zeta)<0 \},\) where \(r\) is a \(\mathcal C^{\infty }\)-convex function in a neighborhood of \(\overline {\Omega }\) with \(\nabla r(\zeta) \neq 0\) for \(\zeta \in b\Omega \) satisfying the following condition: for \(\delta >0,\) there exists \(C(\delta)>0\) such that \(|\Phi (\zeta , z)|\geq \delta \) for \(|\zeta - z|\geq \delta\), \((\zeta , z)\in \overline \Omega \times \overline \Omega \) and \(|\Phi* (\zeta , z)|\geq \delta \) for \(|\zeta - z|\geq \delta\), \((\zeta , z)\in \mathbb C^n \setminus \overline \Omega\), where \(\Phi (\zeta , z) = \sum_{j=1}^n \frac{\partial r(\zeta)}{\partial \zeta_j }(\zeta_j - z_j) - r(\zeta)\) and \(\Phi*(\zeta , z)=-\sum_{j=1}^n \frac{\partial r(z)}{\partial z_j } (\zeta_j - z_j) .\) As an application the author obtains an explicit solution to a division problem.
