| Summary |
"This monograph provides a unified presentation of several differential geometric aspects in the theory of CR manifolds and tangential Cauchy-Riemann equations. It presents the major differential geometric acheivements in the theory of CR manifolds, such as the Tanaka-Webster connection, Fefferman's metric, pseudo-Einstein structures and the Lee conjecture, CR immersions, subelliptic harmonic maps as a local manifestation of pseudoharmonic maps from a CR manifold, Yang-Mills fields on CR manifolds, to name a few. It also aims at explaining how certain results from analysis are employed in CR geometry."--Jacket |
