The L2 Aeppli-Bott-Chern Hilbert complex

Abstract

We analyse the L2 Hilbert complexes naturally associated to a non-compact complex manifold, namely the ones which originate from the Dolbeault and the Aeppli-Bott-Chern complexes. In particular we define the L2 Aeppli-Bott-Chern Hilbert complex and examine its main properties on general Hermitian manifolds, on complete Kähler manifolds and on Galois coverings of compact complex manifolds. The main results are achieved through the study of self-adjoint extensions of various differential operators whose kernels, on compact Hermitian manifolds, are isomorphic to either Aeppli or Bott-Chern cohomology.
