We show the intersection of a compact almost complex subvariety of dimension 4 and a compact almost complex submanifold of codimension 2 is a J-holomorphic curve. This is a generalization of positivity of intersections for J-holomorphic curves in almost complex 4-manifolds to higher dimensions. As an application, we discuss pseudoholomorphic sections of a complex line bundle. We introduce a method to produce J-holomorphic curves using the differential geometry of almost Hermitian manifolds. When our main result is applied to pseudoholomorphic maps, we prove the singularity subset of a pseudoholomorphic map between almost complex 4-manifolds is J-holomorphic. Building on this, we show degree one pseudoholomorphic maps between almost complex 4-manifolds are actually birational morphisms in pseudoholomorphic category.

Let $X$ be an abstract not necessarily compact orientable CR manifold of dimension $2n-1$, $n\geqslant2$, and let $L^k$ be the $k$-th tensor power of a CR complex line bundle $L$ over $X$. Given $q\in\set{0,1,\ldots,n-1}$, let $\Box^{(q)}_{b,k}$ be the Gaffney extension of Kohn Laplacian for $(0,q)$ forms with values in $L^k$. For $\lambda\geq0$, let $\Pi^{(q)}_{k,\leq\lambda}:=E((-\infty,\lambda])$, where $E$ denotes the spectral measure of $\Box^{(q)}_{b,k}$. In this work, we prove that $\Pi^{(q)}_{k,\leq k^{-N_0}}F^*_k$, $F_k\Pi^{(q)}_{k,\leq k^{-N_0}}F^*_k$, $N_0\geq1$, admit asymptotic expansions with respect to $k$ on the non-degenerate part of the characteristic manifold of $\Box^{(q)}_{b,k}$, where $F_k$ is some kind of microlocal cut-off function. Moreover, we show that $F_k\Pi^{(q)}_{k,\leq0}F^*_k$ admits a full asymptotic expansion with respect to $k$ if $\Box^{(q)}_{b,k}$ has small spectral gap property with respect to $F_k$ and $\Pi^{(q)}_{k,\leq0}$ is $k$-negligible away the diagonal with respect to $F_k$. By using these asymptotics, we establish almost Kodaira embedding theorems on CR manifolds and Kodaira embedding theorems on CR manifolds with transversal CR $S^1$ action.

Let $(X,T^{1,0}X)$ be a compact orientable embeddable three dimensional strongly pseudoconvex CR manifold and let ${\rm P\,}$ be the associated CR Paneitz operator. In this paper, we show that (I) ${\rm P\,}$ is self-adjoint and ${\rm P\,}$ has $L^2$ closed range. Let $N$ and $\Pi$ be the associated partial inverse and the orthogonal projection onto ${\rm Ker\,}{\rm P\,}$ respectively, then $N$ and $\Pi$ enjoy some regularity properties. (II) Let $\hat{\mathcal{P}}$ and $\hat{\mathcal{P}_0}$ be the space of $L^2$ CR pluriharmonic functions and the space of real part of $L^2$ global CR functions respectively. Let $S$ be the associated Szeg\"o projection and let $\tau$, $\tau_0$ be the orthogonal projections onto $\hat{\mathcal{P}}$ and $\hat{\mathcal{P}_0}$ respectively. Then, $\Pi=S+\ol S+F_0$, $\tau=S+\ol S+F_1$, $\tau_0=S+\ol S+F_2$, where $F_0, F_1, F_2$ are smoothing operators on $X$. In particular, $\Pi$, $\tau$ and $\tau_0$ are Fourier integral operators with complex phases and $\hat{\mathcal{P}}^\perp\bigcap{\rm Ker\,}{\rm P\,}$, $\hat{\mathcal{P}_0}^\perp\bigcap\hat{\mathcal{P}}$, $\hat{\mathcal{P}_0}^\perp\bigcap{\rm Ker\,}{\rm P\,}$ are all finite dimensional subspaces of $C^\infty(X)$ (it is well-known that $\hat{\mathcal{P}_0}\subset\hat{\mathcal{P}}\subset{\rm Ker\,}{\rm P\,}$). (III) ${\rm Spec\,}{\rm P\,}$ is a discrete subset of $\Real$ and for every $\lambda\in{\rm Spec\,}{\rm P\,}$, $\lambda\neq0$, $\lambda$ is an eigenvalue of ${\rm P\,}$ and the associated eigenspace $H_\lambda({\rm P\,})$ is a finite dimensional subspace of $C^\infty(X)$.
