Flattening of CR singular points and analyticity of local hull of   holomorphy
  A primary goal in this paper is to study the question that asks when a real analytic submanifold $M$ in ${\mathbb{C}}^{n+1}$ bounds a real analytic (up to $M$) Levi-flat hypersurface $\hat{M}$ near $p\in M$ such that $\hat{M}$ is foliated by a family of complex hypersurfaces moving along the normal direction of $M$ at $p$, and gives the invariant local hull of holomorphy of $M$ near $p$. This question is equivalent to the holomorphic flattening problem for $M$ near $p$.   We will give an affirmative answer to above question when $p$ is a real complex tangent point with at least one elliptic direction (positively curved direction). We also obtain a formal flattening theorem under the assumption of one non-parabolic direction.
