Quadratically parametrized maps from a real projective space to a
complex projective space are constructed as projections of the
Veronese embedding. A classification theorem relates equivalence
classes of projections to real congruence classes of complex symmetric
matrix pencils. The images of some low-dimensional cases include
certain quartic curves in the Riemann sphere, models of the real
projective plane in complex projective 4-space, and some normal form
varieties for real submanifolds of complex space with CR
singularities.

For m<n, any real analytic m-submanifold of complex n-space with a
nondegenerate CR singularity is shown to be locally equivalent, under
a holomorphic coordinate change, to a fixed real algebraic variety
defined by linear and quadratic polynomials. The situation is
analogous to Whitney's stability theorem for cross-cap singularities
of smooth maps. The complex analyticity of the normalizing
transformation is proved using a rapid convergence argument.

"... Abstract. Quadratically parametrized maps from a product of real projective spaces to a complex projective space are constructed as the composition of the Segre embedding with a projection.

Abstract. Quadratically parametrized maps from a product of real projective spaces to a complex projective space are constructed as the composition of the Segre embedding with a projection. A classification theorem relates equivalence classes of projections to equivalence classes of complex matrix pencils. One low-dimensional case is a family of maps whose images are ruled surfaces in the complex projective plane, some of which exhibit hyperbolic CR singularities. Another case is a set of maps whose images in complex projective 4-space are projections of the real Segre threefold, and some of these images exhibit CR singularities.

CR singularities of real 4-submanifolds in complex 3-space are classified by using local holomorphic coordinate changes to transform the quadratic coefficients of the real analytic defining equation into a normal form. The quadratic coefficients determine an intersection index, which appears in global enumerative formulas for CR singularities of compact submanifolds.
