Abstract.
Let X be a Banach space with a countable unconditional basis (e.g., X=ℓ2), Ω⊂X open. We show that Ω is pseudoconvex if and only if for each affine complex line L in X the sheaf cohomology group H 1(Ω,I) vanishes, where I is the ideal sheaf of all holomorphic functions on Ω that vanish on Ω∩L. We also give an example that the condition H q(Ω,𝒪)=0 for all q≥1 unlike in finite dimensions does not imply the pseudoconvexity of Ω . Lastly, we prove an interpolation result.
