Abstract
This paper concernsL ∞-variants of Hörmanders weightedL 2-estimates for the\(\bar \partial - equation\). In particular, we discuss a conjecture concerning suchL ∞-estimates which is related to the corona problem in the ball, and show a weaker version of this conjecture. The proof uses a refinedL 2-estimate for the canonical solution to the\(\bar \partial - equation\). An alternative approach based on von Neumann’s Minimax theorem is also given.
