We investigate the nondegeneracy of higher order Levi forms on weakly nondegenerate homogeneous CR manifolds. Improving previous results, we prove that general orbits of real forms in complex flag manifolds have order less or equal than 3 and the compact ones less or equal 2. Finally we construct by Lie extensions weakly nondegenerate CR vector bundles with arbitrary orders of nondegeneracy.

On 3-nondegenerate CR manifolds in dimension 7 (I): the transitive case

We investigate 3-nondegenerate CR structures in the lowest possible dimension 7, and one of our goals is to prove Beloshapka's conjecture on the symmetry dimension bound for hypersurfaces in $C^4$.…

CR relatives Kaehler manifolds

. In this paper we show that two K¨ahler manifolds which do not share a K¨ahler submanifold, do not share either a Levi degenerate CR–submanifold with constant dimension Levi kernel. In particular,…

On finitely nondegenerate closed homogeneous CR manifolds

A bstract . A complex flag manifold F = G / Q decomposes into finitely many real orbits under the action of a real form G σ of G . Their embedding into F define on them CR manifold structures. We…

Locally homogeneous finitely nondegenerate CR-manifolds

Germs of locally homogeneous CR manifolds M can be characterized in terms of certain algebraic data, e.g., by CR-algebras. We give an explicit formula which relates the Levi form of such an M and its…

Complete nondegenerate locally standard CR manifolds

Abstract. Let M be a complete nondegenerate locally standard CR manifold. We show that a necessary and sufficient condition for M to be compact is that the Lie algebra of its infinitesimal CR…

Orbits of real forms in complex flag manifolds

We investigate the $CR$ geometry of the orbits $M$ of a real form $G_0$ of a complex simple group $G$ in a complex flag manifold $X=G/Q$. We are mainly concerned with finite type, Levi non-degeneracy…

On Extrinsic Symmetric CR-Structures on the Manifolds of Complete Flags

In the present paper we study extrinsic symmetric CR-structures on the manifolds of complete flags Gu/T relating some of them with the inner symmetric spaces Gu/K. We show that the maximum possible…

Orbits of real forms, Matsuki duality and CR-cohomology

We discuss the relationship between groups of CR cohomology of some compact homogeneous CR manifolds and the corresponding Dolbeault cohomology groups of their canonical embeddings.

On the topology of minimal orbits in complex flag manifolds

We compute the Euler-Poincare characteristic of the homo- geneous compact manifolds that can be described as minimal orbits for the action of a real form in a complex flag manifold.

Aspects of the Levi form

We discuss various analytical and geometrical aspects of the Levi form, which is associated with a CR manifold having any CR dimension and any CR codimension.

Complex Analytic Coordinates in Almost Complex Manifolds

A manifold is called a complex manifold if it can be covered by coordinate patches with complex coordinates in which the coordinates in overlapping patches are related by complex analytic…

ON REPRESENTATIONS AND COMPACTIFICATIONS OF SYMMETRIC RIEMANNIAN SPACES

In the recent study of automorphic functions [2], [4], [7], it has become necessary to take boundaries of symmetric bounded domains (or more generally, of symmetric Riemannian spaces) into account…
