On finitely nondegenerate closed homogeneous CR manifolds

Abstract

A complex flag manifold $$\textsf {F}{=}{{\textbf {G}}}/{{\textbf {Q}}}$$ decomposes into finitely many real orbits under the action of a real form $${{\textbf {G}}}^\upsigma $$ of $${{\textbf {G}}}$$ . Their embedding into $$\textsf {F}$$ defines on them CR manifold structures. We characterize and list all the closed real orbits which are finitely nondegenerate.
