Abstract: The weighted Kohn Laplacian Boxvarphi is a natural second order elliptic operator associated to a weight varphi:mathbbCnightarrowmathbbR and acting on (0,1)-forms, which plays a key role in several questions of complex analysis. We consider here the case of model monomial weights in mathbbC2, i.e., where GammasubseteqmathbbN2 is finite. Our goal is to prove coercivity estimates of the form Boxvarphigeqmu2, where mu:mathbbCnightarrowmathbbR acts by pointwise multiplication on (0,1)-forms, and the inequality is in the sense of self-adjoint operators. We recently proved (arxiv.org:1502.00865) how to derive from mu-coercivity estimates for Boxvarphi pointwise bounds for the weighted Bergman kernel associated to varphi. Here we introduce a technique to establish mu-coercivity with mu(z,w)=c(1+|z|a+|w|b)qquad(a,bgeq0), where a,bgeq0 depend (and are easily computable from) Gamma. As a corollary we also prove that, for a wide class of model monomial weights, the spectrum of Boxvarphi is discrete if and only if the weight is not decoupled, i.e. Gamma contains at least a point with . Our methods comprise a new holomorphic uncertainty principle and linear optimization arguments.
