Abstract: In this article, we consider a bounded pseudoconvex domain in satifying: (a) it admits a proper holomorphic mapping f onto the unit ball B2, and (b) it is simply connected and has a real analytic boundary. According to [Barletta-Bedford, Indiana U. Math. J, 39(1985), 315-338], the strong pseudconvexity of B2 alone yields that such a domain is "weakly spherical" at the boundary points that are at the same time a smooth point of the branch locus . (Notice that [Diederich-Fornaess, Math. Ann., 282 (1988), 681-700] implies that f as well as Zdf extends holomorphically across the boundaries.) Our main contribution in this paper is that we have discovered a stronger rigidity (both local and global) in case the target domain is the unit ball. The main results are: THEOREM ("Local Rigidity"): Let (M,o) be a real analytic normalized weakly spherical pointed CR hypersurface in of order k0>1. Let (Sigma,o) be the pointed Siegel hypersurface given by the defining equation Rew|z|2=0. If there is a holomorphic mapping F:(M,o)o(Sigma,o) for which o is a regular branch point, then (1) (M,o) is defined by the equation Rew|z|2k0=0, and (2) F(z,w) is equivalent to (z,w)mapsto(zk0,w) up to a composition with elements in Aut(M,o) and Aut(Sigma,o). THEOREM ("Global Rigidity"): Let D and f:DoB2 be as above, and let f be generically m-to-1. Assume that its branch locus Zdf admits an analytic component V with the following properties: (1) f is locally a m-to-1 branched covering with branch locus V at every point of VcappartialD; (2) VcappartialD is connected and contains no singular point of the variety Zdf. Then D is biholomorphic to Em=|z|2m+|w|2<1.
