100 years ago exactly, in 1906, Hartogs published a celebrated extension phenomenon (birth of Several Complex Variables), whose global counterpart was stated in full generality later by Osgood (1929): holomorphic functions in a connected neighborhood V(bD) of a connected boundary bD contained in C^n (n >= 2) do extend holomorphically and uniquely to the domain D. It was a long-standing open problem to derive a proof using only analytic discs, as did Hurwitz (1897), Hartogs (1906) and E.E....

Let S be an arbitrary real surface, with or without boundary, contained in a hypersurface M of the complex euclidean space \C^2, with S and M of class C^{2, a}, where 0 < a < 1. If M is globally minimal, if S is totally real except at finitely many complex tangencies which are hyperbolic in the sense of E. Bishop and if the union of separatrices is a tree of curves without cycles, we show that every compact K of S is CR-, W- and L^p-removable (Theorem~1.3). We treat this seemingly global...

This is an extensive (published) survey on CR geometry, whose major themes are: formal analytic reflection principle; generic properties of Systems of (CR) vector fields; pairs of foliations and conjugate reflection identities; Sussmann's orbit theorem; local and global aspects of holomorphic extension of CR functions; Tumanov's solution of Bishop's equation in Hoelder classes with optimal loss of smoothness; wedge-extendability on C^2,a generic submanifolds of C^n consisting of a single CR...

Let $M$ be a $CR$ submanifold of a complex manifold $X$. The main result of this article is to show that $CR$-hypoellipticity at $p_0\in{M}$ is necessary and sufficient for holomorphic extension of all germs of $CR$ functions to an ambient neighborhood in $X$. As an application, we obtain that $CR$-hypoellipticity implies the existence of generic embeddings and prove holomorphic extension for a large class of $CR$ manifolds satisfying a higher order Levi pseudoconcavity condition.

The H-principle, which is the analogue, for CR manifolds, of the classical Hartogs principle in several complex variables, is known to be valid in the small on a pseudoconcave CR manifold of any codimension. However it fails in the large, as has been shown by the counterexample found in [HN1]. Hence there is an underlying obstruction to the global H-principle on a pseudoconcave CR manifold. The purpose of this note is to take the first steps toward a deeper understanding of this obstruction.

Employing Morse theory for the global control of monodromy and the method of analytic discs for local extension, we establish a version of the global Hartogs extension theorem in a singular setting: for every domain D of an (n-1)-complete normal complex space X of pure dimension n >= 2 and for every compact set K in D such that D - K is connected, holomorphic or meromorphic functions in D - K extend holomorphically or meromorphically to D. Normality is an unvavoidable assumption for...

In this article, we consider metrically thin singularities E of the solutions of the tangential Cauchy-Riemann operators on a C^{2,a}-smooth embedded Cauchy-Riemann generic manifold M (CR functions on M - E) and more generally, we consider holomorphic functions defined in wedgelike domains attached to M - E. Our main result establishes the wedge- and the L^1-removability of E under the hypothesis that the (\dim M-2)-dimensional Hausdorff volume of E is zero and that M and M\backslash E are...
