Abstract

In this paper, we discuss horizontal immersions of discs in certain corank-2 fat distributions on 6-dimensional manifolds. The underlying real distribution of a holomorphic contact distribution on a complex 3 manifold belongs to this class. The main result presented here says that the associated nonlinear PDE is locally invertible. Using this we prove the existence of germs of embedded horizontal discs.
