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…
We investigate the nondegeneracy of higher order Levi forms on weakly nondegenerate homogeneous $CR$ manifolds. Improving previous results, we prove that general orbits of real forms in complex flag manifolds have order less or equal $3$…
We classify pseudo parallel proper CR-submanifolds in a non-flat complex space form with CR-dimension greater than one. With this result, the non-existence of recurrent as well as semi parallel proper CR-submanifolds in a non-flat complex…
We prove that the spectrum of the Kohn Laplacian does not determine the equivalence classes of CR manifolds. We construct pairs of odd-dimensional elliptic manifolds that are not equivalent as CR manifolds but whose Kohn Laplacians have the…
Let ${\mathfrak C}_{2,1}$ be the class of connected 5-dimensional CR-hypersurfaces that are 2-nondegenerate and uniformly Levi degenerate of rank 1. We show that the CR-structures in ${\mathfrak C}_{2,1}$ are reducible to…
We give a very simple argument to the effect that most germs of generic real analytic Cauchy-Riemann manifolds of positive CR dimension are not holomorphically embeddable into any generic real algebraic CR manifold of the same real…
Let $M_1$ and $M_2$ be two K\"ahler manifolds. We call $M_1$ and $M_2$ {\em relatives} if they share a non-trivial K\"ahler submanifold $S$, namely, if there exist two holomorphic and isometric immersions (K\"ahler immersions) $h_1: S\to…
We give an example of a compact Levi-flat CR 3-manifold with a positive-along-leaves CR line bundle which is not ample with respect to transversely infinitely differentiable CR sections. This example shows that we cannot improve the…
Given a wedge V with generic edge in a submanifold M of $C^N$, in general, CR-functions on V do not extend to a wedge in $C^N$ in the direction of each nontrivial value of the Levi form of M as was recently observed by Eastwood and Graham.…
In this paper we introduce paraquaternionic CR-submanifolds of almost paraquaternionic hermitian manifolds and state some basic results on their differential geometry. We also study a class of semi-Riemannian submersions from…
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…
We show that for a real-analytic connected holomorphically nondegenerate 5-dimensional CR-hypersurface $M$ and its symmetry algebra $\mathfrak{s}$ one has either: (i) $\dim\mathfrak{s}=15$ and $M$ is spherical (with Levi form of signature…
We discuss various analytical and geometrical aspects of the Levi form, which is associated with a CR manifold having any CR dimension and any CR codimension.
Local CR-generic submanifolds of C^N are in one-to-one correspondence with their respective graphing functions, but it is well known that (despite their importance) the Cartan-Hachtroudi-Chern-Moser invariants and coframes for Levi…
We construct canonical absolute parallelisms over real-analytic manifolds equipped with $2$-nondegenerate, hypersurface-type CR structures of arbitrary odd dimension not less than $7$ whose Levi kernel has constant rank belonging to a broad…
In this companion paper to our article {\em Accidental CR structures} (arxiv.org, January 2023), thought of as an appendix not submitted for publication, we provide complete explicit lists of infinitesimal CR automorphisms for the concerned…
We study the second fundamental form of semi-isometric CR immersions from strictly pseudoconvex CR manifolds into K\"ahler manifolds. As an application, we give a precise condition for the CR umbilicality of real hypersurfaces, extending an…
An LCK (locally conformally Kahler) manifold is a Hermitian manifold which admits a Kahler cover with deck group acting by holomorphic homotheties with respect to the Kahler metric. The product of two LCK manifolds does not have a natural…
Let C(2,1) be the class of connected 5-dimensional CR-hypersurfaces that are 2-nondegenerate and uniformly Levi degenerate of rank 1. In a recent article, we proved that the CR-structures in C(2,1) are reducible to so(3,2)-valued absolute…
We prove the Lefchetz theorem for CR submanifolds in Hermitian symmetric spaces. As an application we prove the nonexistence of real analytic Levi flat submanifolds in such manifolds.
