We construct normal forms for Levi degenerate hypersurfaces of finite type in $\mathbb C^2$. As one consequence, an explicit solution to the problem of local biholomorphic equivalence is obtained. Another consequence determines the…
In this paper, we study the real hypersurfaces $M$ in $\mathbb C^2$ at points $p\in M$ of infinite type. The degeneracy of $M$ at $p$ is assumed to be the least possible, namely such that the Levi form vanishes to first order in the CR…
We construct a complete convergent normal form for a real hypersurface in $\CC{N},\,N\geq 2$ at generic Levi degeneracy. This seems to be the first convergent normal form for a Levi-degenerate hypersurface. In particular, we obtain, in the…
We study the holomorphic equivalence problem for finite type hypersurfaces in $\mathbb C^2$. We discover a geometric condition, which is sufficient for the existence of a natural convergent normal form for a finite type hypersurface. We…
$2$-nondegenerate real hypersurfaces in complex manifolds play an important role in CR-geometry and the theory of Hermitian Symmetric Domains. In this paper, we construct a complete convergent normal form for everywhere $2$-nondegenerate…
The Chern-Moser normal form and its analog on finite type hypersurfaces in general do not respect symmetries. Extending the work of N. K. Stanton, we consider the local equivalence problem for symmetric Levi degenerate hypersurfaces of…
In this paper, we consider real hypersurfaces $M$ in $\Bbb C^3$ (or more generally, 5-dimensional CR manifolds of hypersurface type) at uniformly Levi degenerate points, i.e. Levi degenerate points such that the rank of the Levi form is…
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…
We consider the problem of describing the local biholomorphic equivalence class of a real-analytic hypersurface $M$ at a distinguished point $p_0\in M$ by giving a normal form for such objects. In order for the normal form to carry useful…
We study CR hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{C}^4$ that are Levi degenerate with constant rank Levi form, and moreover finitely nondegenerate. Each of these can be described as a deformation of a model CR hypersurface by adding terms of higher…
We introduce new invariant tensors in CR structures which can be viewed as higher order Levi forms. Using the second and third order tensors, we give a complete formal normal form (in the sense of Chern-Moser) for a real hypersurface at a…
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…
We study nonlinear automorphisms of Levi degenerate hypersurfaces of finite multitype. By recent results of Kolar, Meylan and Zaitsev, the Lie algebra of infinitesimal CR automorphisms may contain a graded component consisting of nonlinear…
We study normal forms of germs of singular real-analytic Levi-flat hypersurfaces. We prove the existence of rigid normal forms for singular Levi-flat hypersurfaces which are defined by the vanishing of the real part of complex…
We present a proof of the existence and uniqueness theorem of a normalizing biholomorphic mapping to Chern-Moser normal form. The explicit form of the equation of a chain on a real hyperquadric is obtained. We show a family of normal forms…
We continue our study, initiated in an earlier article, of a class of rigid hypersurfaces in ${\mathbb C}^3$ that are 2-nondegenerate and uniformly Levi degenerate of rank 1, having zero CR-curvature. We drop the restrictive assumptions of…
We construct complete normal forms for $5$-dimensional real hypersurfaces in $\mathbb C^3$ which are $2$-nondegenerate and also of Levi non-uniform rank zero at the origin point ${\bf p} =0$. The latter condition means that the rank of the…
It is constructed a normal form for a class of real-smooth surfaces M\subset\mathbb{C}^{2} defined near a degenerate CR singularity.
The paper gives a complete description of local automorphism groups for Levi degenerate hypersurfaces of finite type in $\mathbb{C}^2$. We also prove that, with the exception of hypersurfaces of the form $v = |z|^k$, local automorphisms are…
Real-analytic Levi-flat codimension two CR singular submanifolds are a natural generalization to ${\mathbb{C}}^m$, $m > 2$, of Bishop surfaces in ${\mathbb{C}}^2$. Such submanifolds for example arise as zero sets of mixed-holomorphic…
