Review text

Let \(V\) be a smooth real manifold, and let \(T(V)\otimes {_\mathbb{R}} \mathbb{C}\) denote the complexified tangent bundle. By a complex Frobenius structure on \(V\) is understood a smooth complex subbundle \(E\) of \(T(V)\otimes {_\mathbb{R}} \mathbb{C}\) such that the set of sections of \(E\) is closed under the Lie bracket. The author mainly proves that if \(E\) is a complex Frobenius structure of rank \(n\) on a neighbourhood of \(0\) in \(\mathbb{R}^{2n}\) with \(n\geq 2\) and \(E\) has a generic degeneracy with positive definite Levi form at \(0\), then there exists a neighbourhood \(M\) of \(0\) and a strongly pseudoconvex interior fold \(F: M \rightarrow \mathbb{C}^n\) inducing the structure \(E\) on \(M\). The proof is based on a theorem of \textit{N. Hanges} and \textit{H. Jacobowitz} [Am. J. Math. 111, No. 1, 53-64 (1989; Zbl 0847.32016)]. Several related results are also considered. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0869.00033].
