- In our earlier work \cite{KZ}, we introduced an analytic regularizability theory for smooth strictly pseudoconvex hypersurfaces in complex space. That is, we found a necessary and sufficient condition for a hypersurface to be CR-equivalent to an analytic target. The condition amount to the holomorphic extension property for a smooth function on a totally real submanifold, both the function and the submanifold being uniquely associated with the given hypersurface. In the present paper, we develop our method further. First, we extend the result in \cite{KZ} to hypersurfaces of finite (possibly low) smoothness. Second, we introduce a new tool for studying CR hypersurfaces in low regularity called {\em regularizing $(0,1)$ sections}. Using the latter key tool, we solve the open problem of checking the {\em sphericity} of a strictly pseudoconvex hypersurface in $\mathbb C^{2}$ in {low regularity}, precisely in the regularity $C^k,\,2\leq k< 7$ which is {\em not} covered by the classical Cartan-Tanaka-Chern-Moser theory. As an application of our theory, we deduce the sphericity of a strictly pseudoconvex hypersurface in $\mathbb C^{2}$ of regularity $C^6$ with vanishing Cartan-Chern CR-curvature.
