Abstract: We discuss compactness of the d-bar-Neumann operator in the setting of weighted L^2-spaces on C^n.$ For this purpose we use a description of relatively compact subsets of L^2- spaces. We also point out how to use this method to show that property (P) implies compactness for the d-bar-Neumann operator on a smoothly bounded pseudoconvex domain and mention an abstract functional analysis characterization of compactness of the d-bar-Neumann operator.


The present paper characterizes compactness of the \(\overline{\partial}\)-Neumann operator on \((0,1)\)-forms for smoothly bounded pseudoconvex domains and in the setting of weighted \(L^2\)-spaces on \(\mathbb{C}^n\) by putting together some well-known tools. The key ingredient is the functional analytic characterization of relatively compact subsets in \(L^2\)-spaces. By use of this criterion, one can see immediately that Catlin's property \((P)\) or McNeal's property \((\widetilde{P})\) imply compactness of the \(\overline{\partial}\)-Neumann operator on a smoothly bounded pseudoconvex domain.
