Unique jet determination of CR maps into Nash sets

Abstract

Let M⊂CN be a real-analytic CR submanifold, M′⊂CN′ a Nash set and EM′ the set of points in M′ of D'Angelo infinite type. We show that if M is minimal, then, for every point p∈M, and for every pair of germs of C∞-smooth CR maps f,g:(M,p)→M′, there exists an integer k=kp such that if f and g have the same k-jets at p, and do not send M into EM′, then necessarily f=g. Furthermore, the map p↦kp may be chosen to be bounded on compact subsets of M. As a consequence, we derive the finite jet determination property for pairs of germs of CR maps from minimal real-analytic CR submanifolds in CN into Nash subsets in CN′ of D'Angelo finite type, for arbitrary N,N′≥2.
