A Codimension Two CR Singular Submanifold That Is Formally Equivalent to a Symmetric Quadric

Abstract: Let

M s u b s e t m a t h b b C^{n + 1}

(

n g e q 2

) be a real analytic submanifold defined by an equation of the form:

w = | z |^{2} + O (| z |^{3})

, where we use

(z, w) i n m a t h b b C^{n} i m e s m a t h b b C

for the coordinates of

m a t h b b C^{n + 1}

. We first derive a pseudo-normal form for

M

near 0. We then use it to prove that

(M, 0)

is holomorphically equivalent to the quadric

(M_{i} n f t y : w = | z |^{2}, 0)

if and only if it can be formally transformed to

(M_{i} n f t y, 0)

. We also use it to give a necessary and sufficient condition when

(M, 0)

can be formally flattened. The result is due to Moser for the case of

n = 1

.
