An Approximation of The Bishop Invariant For 3- Manifolds

Abstract
The Bishop invariant is a powerful tool in the analysis of real submanifolds of complex space that associates to every (non-degenerate) complex tangent of the embedding a non-negative real number (or infinity). It is a biholomorphism invariant that gives information regarding the local hull of holomorphy of the manifold near the complex tangent. In this paper, we find an approximation for the Bishop invariant near a non-exceptional complex tangent in a 3- manifold.
