Diederich-Fornæss Index On Boundaries Containing Crescents, Jason Demoulpied

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

The worm domain developed by Diederich and Fornæss is a classic example of a boundedpseudoconvex domains that fails to satisfy global regularity of the Bergman Projection, due to the set of weakly pseudoconvex points that form an annulus in its boundary. We instead examine a bounded pseudoconvex domain Ω ⊂ C2 whose set of weakly pseudoconvex points form a crescent in its boundary. In 2019, Harrington had shown that these types of domains satisfy global regularity of the Bergman Projection based on the existence of good vector fields. In this thesis we study the Regularized Diederich-Fornæss index of these domains, …
