Abstract

We provide a solution to the effectiveness problem in Kohn’s algorithm for generating holomorphic subelliptic multipliers for $(0, q)$ forms for arbitrary $q$. As application, we obtain subelliptic estimates for $(0, q)$ forms with effectively controlled order $\varepsilon \gt 0$ (the Sobolev exponent) for domains given by sums of squares of holomorphic functions (J.J. Kohn called them “special domains” in [K79]). These domains are of particular interest due to their relation with complex and algebraic geometry. Our methods include triangular resolutions introduced by the authors in [KZ20].
