Abstract: We prove and organize some results on the normal forms of Hermitian operators composed with the Veronese map. We apply this general framework to prove two specific theorems in CR geometry. First, extending a theorem of Faran, we classify all real-analytic CR maps between any hyperquadric in C2 and any hyperquadric in C3, resulting in a finite list of equivalence classes. Second, we prove that all degree-two CR maps of spheres in all dimensions are spherically equivalent to a monomial map, thus obtaining an elegant classification of all degree-two CR sphere maps.


The main results of the paper are two theorems on classification of CR-maps of spheres and hyperquadrics. In Theorem 1.2 the author classifies the non-constant real-analytic CR-maps from a connected open set of the sphere in \(\mathbb C^2\) to the hyperquadric of signature \((2,1)\) in \(\mathbb C^3\). This complements a result by \textit{J. J. Faran} on CR-maps from the sphere in \(\mathbb C^2\) to the sphere in \(\mathbb C^3\) [Invent. Math. 60, 135--172 (1980; Zbl 0464.32011)]. In Theorem 1.5 the author proves that rational CR-maps of degree 2 from the sphere in \(\mathbb C^n\) (\(n\geq 2\)) to the sphere in \(\mathbb C^N\) are spherically equivalent to monomial maps and classifies them. This generalises a result by \textit{S. Ji} and \textit{Y. Zhang} for \(n=2\) [Sci. China, Ser. A 52, No. 12, 2647--2667 (2009; Zbl 1211.32009)]. In the proofs normal forms of Hermitian operators are used.
