Higher Order Invariants of Levi Degenerate Hypersurfaces
نویسنده
چکیده
The first part of this paper considers higher order CR invariants of three dimensional hypersurfaces of finite type. Using a full normal form we give a complete characterization of hypersurfaces with trivial local automorphism group, and analogous results for finite groups. The second part considers hypersurfaces of finite Catlin multitype, and the Kohn-Nirenberg phenomenon in higher dimensions. We give a necessary condition for local convexifiability of a class of pseudoconvex hypersurfaces in C.

Levi nondegenerate real-analytic hypersurfaces M ⊂ are well understood due to the seminal results of Tanaka [17] and Chern-Moser[5], where a complete set of local invariants for M has been defined. At the other extreme are those hypersurfaces which are locally CR-equivalent to a product M ×, (take the real hyperplanes in as a simple example). In-between there is a huge and much less underst...
متن کاملNew Normal Forms for Levi-nondegenerate Hypersurfaces
In this paper we construct a large class of new normal forms for Levi-nondegenerate real hypersurfaces in complex spaces. We adopt a general approach illustrating why these normal forms are natural and which role is played by the celebrated Chern-Moser normal form [CM74]. The latter appears in our class as the one with the ”maximum normalization” in the lowest degree. However, there are other n...
متن کاملThe Local Equivalence Problem in Cr Geometry
This article is dedicated to the centenary of the local CR equivalence problem, formulated by Henri Poincaré in 1907. The first part gives an account of Poincaré’s heuristic counting arguments, suggesting existence of infinitely many local CR invariants. Then we sketch the beautiful completion of Poincaré’s approach to the problem in the work of Chern and Moser on Levi nondegenerate hypersurfac...
متن کاملMonotonicity for the Chern-Moser-Weyl curva- ture tensor and CR embeddings Dedicated to Professor ZHONG TongDe on the occasion of his 80th birthday
We give, in this paper, a monotonicity formula for the Chern-Moser-Weyl curvature tensor under the action of holomorphic embeddings between Levi non-degenerate hypersurfaces with the same positive signature. As an application, we provide some concrete examples of algebraic Levi non-degenerate hypersurfaces with positive signature that are not embeddable into a hyperquadric of the same signature...
متن کاملStationary Holomorphic Discs and Finite Jet Determination Problems
We construct a family of small analytic discs attached to Levi non-degenerate hypersurfaces in Cn+1, which is globally biholomorphically invariant. We then apply this technique to study unique determination problems along Levi non-degenerate hypersurfaces that are merely of class C4. This method gives 2-jet determination results for germs of biholomorphisms, CR diffeomorphisms, as well as in th...
