Transversality of holomorphic maps into hyperquadrics

From MaRDI portal





The notion of \textit{CR transversal map} as well as the notion of \textit{CR totally degenerate map} between two real-analytic hypersurfaces in \(\mathbb C^{n} \) appear in the paper by \textit{M. S. Baouendi} and \textit{L. P. Rothschild} entitled [Invent. Math. 93, No. 3, 481--500 (1988; Zbl 0653.32020)].\N\NThe link between those above notions and CR diffeomorphisms of real-analytic hypersurfaces in \(\mathbb C^{n+1} \) appear, for instance, in Proposition 9.2.6 and Theorem 9.9.26 of the book by \textit{M. S. Baouendi} et al. [Real submanifolds in complex space and their mappings. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press (1999; Zbl 0944.32040)].\N\NIn the present paper, the authors study holomorphic maps \(F\) between a smooth Levi non-degenerate real hypersurface in \(\mathbb C^{n} \) and a hyperquadric in \(\mathbb C^{N}\), \(n< N, \) with same signature \( l\le \dfrac{n-1}{2}.\) They show in Theorem 1.1 that these holomorphic maps \(F\) are either CR transversal or totally degenerate provided that \(N-n < n-1,\) improving a result by \textit{X. Huang} and \textit{Y. Zhang} [in: Complex geometry and dynamics. The Abel symposium 2013, Trondheim, Norway, 2013. Cham: Springer. 139--155 (2015; Zbl 1337.32050)], where they suppose \(N-n < \dfrac{n-1}{2}.\) Theorem 1.1 is an important step towards a conjecture of Baouendi-Huang stating that holomorphic maps between two Levi non-degenerate real-analytic hypersurfaces with same signature are either local CR embeddings or are totally degenerate.
