A family of compact strictly pseudoconvex hypersurfaces in $\mathbb C^2$   without umbilical points
  We prove the following: For $\epsilon>0$, let $D_\epsilon$ be the bounded strictly pseudoconvex domain in $\mathbb C^2$ given by \begin{equation*} (\log|z|)^2+(\log|w|)^2<\epsilon^2. \end{equation*} The boundary $M_\epsilon:=\partial D_\epsilon\subset \mathbb C^2$ is a compact strictly pseudoconvex CR manifold without umbilical points. This resolves a long-standing question in complex analysis that goes back to the work of S.-S. Chern and J. K. Moser in 1974.
