Abstract: | In this survey article, we present some known results and also propose some open questions related to the analytic and geometric aspects of Bishop submanifolds in a complex space. We mainly focus on those problems that the author and his coauthors have recently worked on. The article also contains an example of a Bishop submanifold in C~3 of real codimension two, which cannot be quadratically flattened at a CR singular point but is CR non-minimal at any CR point. This provides a counter-example to a question asked in a private communication by Zaistev(2013). |
