Abstract

We present a large class of homogeneous 22-nondegenerate CR-manifolds MM, both of hypersurface type and of arbitrarily high CR-codimension, with the following property: Every CR-equivalence between domains U,VU,V in MM extends to a global real-analytic CR-automorphism of MM. We show that this class contains GG-orbits in Hermitian symmetric spaces ZZ of compact type, where GG is a real form of the complex Lie group \Aut(Z)0\Aut(Z)^{0} and GG has an open orbit that is a bounded symmetric domain of tube type.
