Recurrent real hypersurfaces in complex two-plane Grassmannians

Summary We introduce the notion of recurrent shape operator for a real hypersurface M in the complex two-plane Grassmannians G₂(C^m+2) and give a non-existence property of real hypersurfaces in G₂(C^m+2) with the recurrent shape operator.     

Reeb parallel Ricci tensor for homogeneous real hypersurfaces in complex hyperbolic two‐plane Grassmannians

In this paper, we introduce the notion of Reeb parallel Ricci tensor for homogeneous real hypersurfaces in complex hyperbolic two‐plane Grassmannians which has a remarkable geometric structure as a Hermitian symmetric space of rank 2. By using a new method of simultaneous diagonalizations, we give a complete classification for real hypersurfaces in complex hyperbolic two‐plane Grassmannians with the Reeb parallel Ricci tensor.     

Pseudo anti‐commuting Ricci tensor and Ricci soliton real hypersurfaces in complex hyperbolic two‐plane Grassmannians

In this paper, first we introduce a new notion of pseudo anti commuting Ricci tensor for real hypersurfaces in complex hyperbolic two‐plane Grassmannians and prove a complete classification theorem that such a hypersurface must be a tube over a totally real totally geodesic , , a horosphere whose center at the infinity is singular or an exceptional case.     

Integral curves of characteristic vector fields of real hypersurfaces in nonflat complex space forms

In this paper, we study real hypersurfaces all of whose integral curves of characteristic vector fields are plane curves in a nonflat complex space form.      

Real minimal hypersurfaces in complex two-plane Grassmannians

We give a pinching condition for compact minimal hypersurfaces in complex two-plane Grassmannians G ₂(? ^m+2) in terms of sectional curvature and the squared norm of the shape operator.     

Commuting structure Jacobi operator for real hypersurfaces in complex two-plane Grassmannians

Real hypersurfaces in complex hyperbolic two‐plane Grassmannians with parallel Ricci tensor

In this paper we prove that there does not exist any Hopf real hypersurface in complex hyperbolic two‐plane Grassmannians with parallel Ricci tensor.     

Hopf hypersurfaces in space forms

Some geometrical properties of Hopf hypersurfaces of Kähler manifolds are introduced and a special attention is given to the case of hypersurfaces in complex projective spaces.     

Real hypersurfaces with constant totally real sectional curvature in a complex space form

We characterize real hypersurfaces with constant holomorphic sectional curvature of a non flat complex space form as the ones which have constant totally real sectional curvature.     

Real hypersurfaces in complex two-plane Grassmannians with certain commuting condition

In this paper, first we introduce a new notion of commuting condition that φφ ₁ A = A φ ₁ φ between the shape operator A and the structure tensors φ and φ ₁ for real hypersurfaces in G ₂(? ^m+2). Suprisingly, real hypersurfaces of type (A), that is, a tube over a totally geodesic G ₂(? ^m+1) in complex two plane Grassmannians G ₂(? ^m+2) satisfy this commuting condition. Next we consider a complete classification of Hopf hypersurfaces in G ₂(? ^m+2) satisfying the commuting condition. Finally we get a characterization of Type (A) in terms of such commuting condition φφ ₁ A = A φ ₁ φ.     

Hopf hypersurfaces in pseudo-Riemannian complex and para-complex space forms

The study of real hypersurfaces in pseudo-Riemannian complex space forms and para-complex space forms, which are the pseudo-Riemannian generalizations of the complex space forms, is addressed. It is proved that there are no umbilic hypersurfaces, nor real hypersurfaces with parallel shape operator in such spaces. Denoting by J be the complex or para-complex structure of a pseudo-complex or para-complex space form respectively, a non-degenerate hypersurface of such space with unit normal vector field N is said to be Hopf if the tangent vector field JN is a principal direction. It is proved that if a hypersurface is Hopf, then the corresponding principal curvature (the Hopf curvature) is constant. It is also observed that in some cases a Hopf hypersurface must be, locally, a tube over a complex (or para-complex) submanifold, thus generalizing previous results of Cecil, Ryan and Montiel.     

Real hypersurfaces with constant totally real bisectional curvature in complex space forms

In this paper we classify real hypersurfaces with constant totally real bisectional curvature in a non flat complex space form M _m (c), c ≠ 0 as those which have constant holomorphic sectional curvature given in [6] and [13] or constant totally real sectional curvature given in [11].     

Real hypersurfaces in complex two-plane Grassmannians with certain commuting condition II

Lee, Kim and Suh (2012) gave a characterization for real hypersurfaces M of Type (A) in complex two plane Grassmannians G ₂(? ^m+2) with a commuting condition between the shape operator A and the structure tensors φ and φ ₁ for M in G ₂(? ^m+2). Motivated by this geometrical notion, in this paper we consider a new commuting condition in relation to the shape operator A and a new operator φφ ₁ induced by two structure tensors φ and φ ₁. That is, this commuting shape operator is given by φφ ₁ A = A φφ ₁. Using this condition, we prove that M is locally congruent to a tube of radius r over a totally geodesic G ₂(? ^m+1) in G ₂(? ^m+2).

We characterize some homogeneous Hopf real hypersurfaces in a nonflat complex space form by studying trajectories for Sasakian magnetic fields whose extrinsic shapes are tangentially of order 2.     

Hopf Hypersurfaces in Complex Two-Plane Grassmannians with Generalized Tanaka–Webster D-Parallel Shape Operator

In this paper, we consider a new notion of generalized Tanaka–Webster D-parallel shape operator for a real hypersurface in a complex two-plane Grassmannian and prove a non-existence theorem of a real hypersurface.     

Real Hypersurfaces in Complex Two-Plane Grassmannians

 The complex two-plane Grassmannian G ₂(C ^m+2 in equipped with both a K?hler and a quaternionic K?hler structure. By applying these two structures to the normal bundle of a real hypersurface M in G ₂(C ^m+2 one gets a one- and a three-dimensional distribution on M. We classify all real hypersurfaces M in G ₂ C ^m+2 , m≥3, for which these two distributions are invariant under the shape operator of M. Received 13 November 1996; in revised form 3 March 1997
