Abstract

Let ΩCn×R\Omega \subset {\mathbb C}^n \times {\mathbb R} be a bounded domain with smooth boundary such that Ω\partial \Omega has only nondegenerate elliptic CR singularities, and let f ⁣:ΩCf \colon \partial \Omega \to {\mathbb C} be a smooth function that is CR at CR points of Ω\partial \Omega (when n=1n=1 we require separate holomorphic extensions for each real parameter). Then ff extends to a smooth CR function on Ωˉ\bar{\Omega}, that is, an analogue of Hartogs-Bochner holds. In addition, if ff and Ω\partial \Omega are real-analytic, then ff is the restriction of a function that is holomorphic on a neighborhood of Ωˉ\bar{\Omega} in Cn+1{\mathbb C}^{n+1}. An immediate application is a (possibly singular) solution of the Levi-flat Plateau problem for codimension 2 submanifolds that are CR images of Ω\partial \Omega as above. The extension also holds locally near nondegenerate, holomorphically flat, elliptic CR singularities.
