Let S (resp. S′) be a (real) hypersurface (i.e. a real analytic sub-manifold of codimension 1) of an n-dimensional complex manifold M (resp. M′). A homeomorphism f of S onto S′ is called a pseudo-conformal homeomorphism if it can be extended to a holomorphic homeomorphism of a neighborhood of S in M onto a neighborhood of S′ in M. In case such an f exists, we say that S and S′ are pseudo-conformally equivalent. A hypersurface S is called non-degenerate (index r) if its Levi-form is non-degenerate (and its index is equal to r) at each point of S.
