Explicit description of spherical rigid hypersurfaces in C^2

Complex Variables 2017-08-01 v2 Differential Geometry

Abstract

We provide an explicit description of all rigid hypersurfaces that are equivalent to a Heisenberg sphere. These hypersurfaces are determined by 4 real parameters. The defining equations of the rigid spheres can also be viewed as the complete solution of a non-linear PDE that expresses the vanishing Cartan curvature condition for rigid hypersurfaces.
