Abstract: This paper studies Fefferman's program cite{F3} of expressing the singularity of the Bergman kernel, for smoothly bounded strictly pseudoconvex domains OmegasubsetCn, in terms of local biholomorphic invariants of the boundary. By cite{F1}, the Bergman kernel on the diagonal K(z,cz) is written in the form K=phi r^{-n-1}+psi log r qtext{with} phi,psiin C^infty(cOmega), where r is a (smooth) defining function of Omega. Recently, Bailey, Eastwood and Graham cite{BEG}, building on Fefferman's earlier work cite{F3}, obtained a full invariant expression of the strong singularity phir−n−1. The purpose of this paper is to give a full invariant expression of the weak singularity psilogr.


The author studies Fefferman's program of expressing the singularity of the Bergman kernel for smoothly bounded strictly pseudoconvex domains \(\Omega\subset \mathbb C^n\) in terms of local biholomorphic invariants of the boundary. The Bergman kernel on the diagonal \(K(z,\overline{z})\) is written in the form \(K=\varphi r^{-n-1}+\psi\log r\) with \(\varphi,\psi\in C^\infty(\overline{\Omega}),\) where \(r\) is a smooth defining function of \(\Omega.\) The purpose of this paper is to give a full invariant expression of the weak singularity \(\psi\log r.\)
