October 23, 2008	Steven Krantz, Washington University in St. Louis Analysis on the Worm Domain Abstract: We study the classical worm domain of Diederich and Fornaess, as updated by Kiselman. We obtain an asymptotic expansion for the Bergman kernal and can apply this expansion to study L^p mapping properties, regularity for the Cauchy-Riemann equations, and other basic phenomena of several variable function theory. The talk will be accessible to faculty and graduate students. Contact person: Ralph McKenzie
