DESCRIPTION:In a recent preprint\, Jih-Hsin Cheng\, Andrea Malchiodi and P
 aul Yang have formulated a positive mass theorem in 3-dimensional CR geome
 try\, and reduced its proof to the solution of a tangential Kohn Laplacian
  on a special class of non-compact strongly pseudoconvex CR manifolds. In 
 joint work with Chin-Yu Hsiao\, we established the solution of such Kohn L
 aplacians\, thereby completing their program. We will survey some of these
  developments in this talk\, and highlight the role of conformal equivalen
 ce in this regard. Attempts will be made to make the talk self-contained.\
