Abstract

We study the fillability (or embeddability) of CR structures under the gauge-fixed Cartan flow. We prove that if the initial CR structure is fillable with nowhere vanishing Tanaka-Webster curvature and free torsion, then it keeps having the same property after a short time. In the Appendix, we show the uniqueness of the solution to the gauge-fixed Cartan flow.
