Breakdown of analyticity for d-bar-b and Szego kernels

Abstract

The CR manifold M_m = { Im z_2= Re z_1^{2m} } (m=2,3,...) is the counterexample, which has been given by M. Christ and D. Geller, to analytic hypoellipticity of d-bar-b and real analyticity of the Szego kernel. In order to give a direct interpretation for the breakdown of real analyticity of the Szego kernel, we give a Borel summation type representation of the Szego kernel in terms of simple singular solutions of the equation d-bar-b u = 0.
