D'Angelo's conjecture for rigid pseudoconvex domains with monomial mixed terms

Let On\mathcal O_n be the ring of germs of holomorphic functions at the origin in Cn\mathbb C^n, and let II be the ideal generated by f1,,flOnf_1,\dots,f_l\in\mathcal O_n, where fj(0)=0f_j(0)=0 for j=1,,lj=1,\dots,l. Write

m(I)=dimC(On/I).m(I)=\dim_{\mathbb C}(\mathcal O_n/I).

Let ΩCn+1\Omega\subset\subset\mathbb C^{n+1} be a rigid domain whose boundary near the origin is defined by

r(z)=2Rezn+1+j=1lfj(z)2,r(z')=2\operatorname{Re} z_{n+1}+\sum_{j=1}^l|f_j(z)|^2,

where z=(z1,,zn)z=(z_1,\dots,z_n) and z=(z1,,zn+1)z'=(z_1,\dots,z_{n+1}). If m(I)m(I) is finite, then a subelliptic estimate holds with gain ϵ\epsilon satisfying

12m(I)ϵ1T(bΩ,0).\frac{1}{2m(I)}\leq\epsilon\leq\frac{1}{T(b\Omega,0)}.

This is presented as an answer to D'Angelo's conjecture in the special case where the mixed term is a sum of squares of monomials; the cited source does not establish the conjecture in full generality, so its resolution status is unclear.
