Abstract: We consider Levi non-degenerate tube hypersurfaces in $C{C}^{n+1}$ that are $(k,n-k)$-spherical, i.e. locally CR-equivalent to the hyperquadric with Levi form of signature $(k,n-k)$, with $nle2k$. We show that the number of affine equivalence classes of such hypersurfaces is infinite (in fact, uncountable) in the following cases: (i) $k=n-2$, $nge7$;linebreak (ii) $k=n-3$, $nge7$; (iii) $klen-4$. For all other values of $k$ and $n$, except for $k=3$, $n=6$, the number of affine classes is known to be finite. The exceptional case $k=3$, $n=6$ has been recently resolved by Fels and Kaup who gave an example of a family of $(3,3)$-spherical tube hypersurfaces that contains uncountably many pairwise affinely non-equivalent elements. In this paper we deal with the Fels-Kaup example by different methods. We give a direct proof of the sphericity of the hypersurfaces in the Fels-Kaup family, and use the $j$-invariant to show that this family indeed contains an uncountable subfamily of pairwise affinely non-equivalent hypersurfaces.
