Abstract

Let \(\Omega \subset {\mathbb {C}}\) be an open set. We show that \({\overline{\partial }}\) has closed range in \(L^{2}(\Omega )\) if and only if the Poincaré–Dirichlet inequality holds. Moreover, we give necessary and sufficient potential-theoretic conditions for the \({\overline{\partial }}\)-operator to have closed range in \(L^{2}(\Omega )\). We also give a new necessary and sufficient potential-theoretic condition for the Bergman space of \(\Omega \) to be infinite dimensional.
