Complex cobordism and embeddability of CR-manifolds (Q1429374)

The author presents two new methods to construct pseudoconcave complex surfaces, with compact, non-embeddable, strictly pseudoconvex ends. Using these constructions, he gives examples of complex cobordisms between two compact, strictly pseudoconvex CR-manifolds of dimension 3, where the first CR manifold is embeddable and the other not. With the same techniques, several other interesting counterexamples are given, like e.g. the existence of a complex cobordism 2-manifold \(X\), with one embeddable pseudoconvex end \(M_1\) and with all CR-functions on \(M_1\) extendable to holomorphic functions on \(X\), and yet with another pseudoconcave end \(M_0\) which is not embeddable.
