L2L^2 estimates for the ∂ˉ\bar \partial operator

This is a survey article about $L^2$ estimates for the $\bar \partial$ operator. After a review of the basic approach that has come to be called the "Bochner-Kodaira Technique", the focus is on twisted techniques and their applications to estimates for $\bar \partial$, to $L^2$ extension theorems, and to other problems in complex analysis and geometry, including invariant metric estimates and the $\bar \partial$-Neumann Problem.Comment: To appear in Bulletin of Mathematical Science

Analytic inversion of adjunction: L^2 extension theorems with gain

We establish new results on weighted $L^2$ extension of holomorphic top forms with values in a holomorphic line bundle, from a smooth hypersurface cut out by a holomorphic function. The weights we use are determined by certain functions that we call denominators. We give a collection of examples of these denominators related to the divisor defined by the submanifold.Comment: To Appear in Ann. Inst. Fourie
