The L2L^2-Stokes conjecture for complex projective varieties

Let VV be a complex projective variety, let M=VsingVM=V\setminus\operatorname{sing} V be its regular part, and equip MM with the metric induced by a smooth Kähler metric on projective space. Let dmind_{\min} and dmaxd_{\max} denote respectively the minimal and maximal closed extensions of the de Rham differential on square-integrable forms. The L2L^2-Stokes conjecture. The minimal and maximal extensions coincide, dmin=dmaxd_{\min}=d_{\max}. This would give uniqueness of the closed extension of the de Rham differential and extend the L2L^2-Stokes theorem from smooth manifolds to singular complex projective varieties. The statement is explicitly identified in the source as the main open problem; it is known for complex surfaces, but remains open in general.
