Deformations of CR maps and applications

We study the deformation theory of CR maps in the positive codimensional case. In particular, we study structural properties of the mapping locus $E$ of (germs of nondegenerate) holomorphic maps $H: (M, p) \to M^\prime$ between generic real submanifolds $M \subset \mathbb{C}^N$ and $ M^\prime \subset \mathbb{C}^{N^\prime}$, defined to be the set of points $p^\prime \in M^\prime$ which admit such a map with $H(p) = p^\prime$. We show that this set $E$ is semi-analytic and provide examples for which E possesses (prescribed) singularities.
