Stationary discs and finite jet determination for CR mappings in higher codimension

Abstract

We discuss stationary discs for generic CR manifolds and apply them to the problem of finite jet determination for CR mappings. We prove that a CR diffeomorphism of two finitely smooth strictly pseudoconvex Levi generating CR manifolds is uniquely determined by its 2-jet at a given point. A new key element of the proof is the existence of non-defective stationary discs.
