Abstract: For odd dimensional Poincar'e-Einstein manifolds (Xn+1,g), we study the set of harmonic k-forms (for k<demi) which are Cm (with minn) on the conformal compactification of X. This is infinite dimensional for small m but it becomes finite dimensional if m is large enough, and in one-to-one correspondence with the direct sum of the relative cohomology and the kernel of the Branson-Gover cite{BG} differential operators (Lk,Gk) on the conformal infinity . In a second time we relate the set of forms in the kernel of d+deltag to the conformal harmonics on the boundary in the sense of cite{BG}, providing some sort of long exact sequence adapted to this setting. This study also provides another construction of Branson-Gover differential operators, including a parallel construction of the generalization of Q curvature for forms.
