Abstract

In 1906 F.Hartogs [4] discovered that a function analytic in a neighborhood of the bicyclinder in C2 could always be extended to an analytic function defined in a neighborhood of all the bicyclinder. Not much later (1910) E.E.Levi [6] found a local analogue of Hartogs’ result: let h: C2 →R be differentiable and suppose that M = h-1 (0) is a submanifold of C2.
