Effective termination of Kohn's algorithm for subelliptic multipliers

Will discuss the problem of the effective termination of Kohn's algorithm for subelliptic multipliers for bounded smooth weakly pseudoconvex domains of finite type. Will show how to apply techniques of local algebraic geometry to prove the effective termination of Kohn's algorithm for the case of special domains and indicate how the method of proof is to be extended to the smooth case.
