Abstract

In 1979, Dufresnoy showed that the existence of a good Stein neighborhood base for Ω ⊂ℂⁿ implies that one can solve the inhomogeneous Cauchy-Riemann equations in C^∞(Ω̄), even if the boundary of Ω is only Lipschitz. In my thesis, I will show sufficient conditions for the existence of a good Stein neighborhood base on a Lipschitz domain satisfying Property (P).
