Abstract:

Consider a compact pseudoconvex CR manifold of dimension 3 and finite type, on which the operator ${\bar \partial _b}$ has closed range in ${L^2}$. The relative fundamental solution of ${\bar \partial _b}$ is the distribution-kernel for that operator which inverts ${\bar \partial _b}$ modulo its kernel and cokernel. We derive pointwise bounds on this fundamental solution and its derivatives.
