The Cauchy Riemann Complex

Integral representation methods serve a twofold purpose: 1° they yield regularity results not easily obtained by other methods and 2°, along the way, they lead to a fairly simple development of parts of the classical theory of several complex variables. The method of integral representations is developed in order to establish 1. classical fundamental results of complex analysis both elementary and advanced, 2. subtle existence and regularity theorems for the Cauchy-Riemann equations on complex manifolds. These results are then applied to important function theoretic questions. The book can be used for advanced courses and seminars at the graduate level; it contains to a large extent material which has not yet been covered in text books.
