In \cite{S 2017}, Suh gave a non-existence theorem for Hopf real hypersurfaces in the complex quadric with parallel normal Jacobi operator. Motivated by this result, in this paper, we introduce some generalized conditions named $\mathcal C$-parallel or Reeb parallel normal Jacobi operators. By using such weaker parallelisms of normal Jacobi operator, first we can assert a non-existence theorem of Hopf real hypersurfaces with $\mathcal C$-parallel normal Jacobi operator in the complex quadric $Q^{m}$, $m \geq 3$. Next, we prove that a Hopf real hypersurface has Reeb parallel normal Jacobi operator if and only if it has an $\mathfrak A$-isotropic singular normal vector field.
We classify real hypersurfaces with isometric Reeb flow in the complex quadrics Q^m for m > 2. We show that m is even, say m = 2k, and any such hypersurface is an open part of a tube around a k-dimensional complex projective space CP^k which is embedded canonically in Q^{2k} as a totally geodesic complex submanifold. As a consequence we get the non-existence of real hypersurfaces with isometric Reeb flow in odd-dimensional complex quadrics.
We introduce the notion of Reeb parallel structure Jacobi operator for real hypersurfaces in the complex hyperbolic quadric ${Q^*}^m=SO^0_{2,m}/SO_2 SO_m$, $m \geq 3$, and give a classification theory for real hypersurfaces in ${{Q^*}^m}$, $m \geq 3$, with Reeb parallel structure Jacobi operator.
First we introduce the notion of parallel structure Jacobi operator for real hypersurfaces in the complex quadric $Q^m = SO_{m+2}/SO_mSO_2$ . Next we give a complete classification of real hypersurfaces in $Q^m = SO_{m+2}/SO_mSO_2$ with parallel structure Jacobi operator.
We introduce the notion of commuting Ricci tensor for real hypersurfaces in the complex quadric $Q^m = SO_{m+2}/SO_mSO_2$ . It is shown that the commuting Ricci tensor gives that the unit normal vector field $N$ becomes $\frak A$-principal or $\frak A$-isotropic. Then according to each case, we give a complete classification of real hypersurfaces in $Q^m = SO_{m+2}/SO_mSO_2$ with commuting Ricci tensor.
In this paper, first, we investigate the commuting property between the normal Jacobi operator~${\bar R}_N$ and the structure Jacobi operator~$R_ξ$ for Hopf real hypersurfaces in the complex quadric~$Q^m = SO_{m+2}/SO_mSO_2$, $m \geq 3$, which is defined by ${\bar R}_N R_ξ = R_ξ{\bar R}_N$. Moreover, a new characterization of Hopf real hypersurfaces with $\mathfrak A$-principal singular normal vector field in the complex quadric~$Q^{m}$ is obtained. By virtue of this result, we can give a remarkable classification of Hopf real hypersurfaces in the complex quadric~$Q^{m}$ with commuting Jacobi …
In this paper, we first introduce the full express of the Riemannian curvature tensor of a real hypersurface $M$ in complex quadric $Q^{m}$ from the equation of Gauss. Next we derive a formula for the structure Jacobi operator $R_ξ$ and its derivative under the Levi-Civita connection of $M$. We give a complete classification of Hopf real hypersurfaces with Reeb parallel structure Jacobi operator, $\nabla_ξR_ξ =0$, in the complex quadric $Q^{m}$, $m \geq 3$.
In this article, we introduce the notion of star-Ricci tensors in the real hypersurfaces of complex quadric $Q^m$. It is proved that there exist no Hopf hypersurfaces in $Q^m,m\geq3$, with commuting star-Ricci tensor or parallel star-Ricci tensor. As a generalization of star-Einstein metric, star-Ricci solitons on $M$ are considered. In this case we show that $M$ is an open part of a tube around a totally geodesic $\mathbb{C}P^\frac{m}{2}\subset Q^{m},m\geq4$.
This paper deals with a limiting case motivated by contact geometry. The limiting case of a tensorial characterization of contact hypersurfaces in Kahler manifolds leads to Hopf hypersurfaces whose maximal complex subbundle of the tangent bundle is integrable. It is known that in non-flat complex space forms and in complex quadrics such real hypersurfaces do not exist, but the existence problem in other irreducible Kahler manifolds is open. In this paper we construct explicitly a one-parameter family of homogeneous Hopf hypersurfaces, whose maximal complex subbundle of the tangent bundle is in…
The Gauss map of a hypersurface of a unit sphere $S^{n+1}(1)$ is a Lagrangian immersion into the complex quadric $Q^n$ and, conversely, every Lagrangian submanifold of $Q^n$ is locally the image under the Gauss map of several hypersurfaces of $S^{n+1}(1)$. In this paper, we give explicit constructions for these correspondences and we prove a relation between the principal curvatures of a hypersurface of $S^{n+1}(1)$ and the local angle functions of the corresponding Lagrangian submanifold of $Q^n$. The existence of such a relation is remarkable since the definition of the angle functions depen…
The almost contact metric structure that we have on a real hypersurface $M$ in the complex quadric $Q^{m}=SO_{m+2}/SO_mSO_2$ allows us to define, for any nonnull real number $k$, the $k$-th generalized Tanaka-Webster connection on $M$, $\hat{\nabla}^{(k)}$. Associated to this connection we have Cho and torsion operators, $F_X^{(k)}$ and $T_X^{(k)}$, respectively, for any vector field $X$ tangent to $M$. From them and for any symmetric operator $B$ on $M$ we can consider two tensor fields of type (1,2) on $M$ that we will denote by $B_F^{(k)}$ and $B_T^{(k)}$, respectively. We will classify rea…
We give a new proof of the classification of contact real hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature in the complex hyperbolic quadric ${Q^m}^* = SO_{m,2}^o/SO_mSO_2$, where $m\geq 3$. We show that a contact real hypersurface $M$ in ${Q^m}^*$ for $m\geq 3$ is locally congruent to a tube of radius $r{\in}{\mathbb R}^+$ around the complex hyperbolic quadric ${Q^{m-1}}^*$, or to a tube of radius $r\in\mathbb{R}^+$ around the $\mathfrak A$-principal $m$-dimensional real hyperbolic space ${\mathbb R}H^m$ in ${Q^m}^* = SO_{m,2}^o/SO_mSO_2$, or to a horosphere in ${Q^{m-1}}^*$ induced by a class of $…
We classify real hypersurfaces with isometric Reeb flow in the complex hyperbolic quadrics ${Q^*}^{m} = SO^{o}_{2,m}/SO_mSO_2$, $m \geq 3$. We show that $m$ is even, say $m = 2k$, and any such hypersurface becomes an open part of a tube around a $k$-dimensional complex hyperbolic space ${\mathbb C}H^k$ which is embedded canonically in ${Q^*}^{2k}$ as a totally geodesic complex submanifold or a horosphere whose center at infinity is $\frak A$-isotropic singular. As a consequence of the result, we get the non-existence of real hypersurfaces with isometric Reeb flow in odd-dimensional complex qua…
Here are described the geometric structures of the lines of principal curvature and the partially umbilic singularities of the tridimensional non compact generic quadric hypersurfaces of ${\mathbb R}^4$. This includes the ellipsoidal hyperboloids of one and two sheets and the toroidal hyperboloids. The present study complements the analysis of the compact ellipsoidal hypersurfaces carried out by D. Lopes, R. Garcia and J. Sotomayor.
We consider the complex hyperbolic quadric ${Q^*}^n$ as a complex hypersurface of complex anti-de Sitter space. Shape operators of this submanifold give rise to a family of local almost product structures on ${Q^*}^n$, which are then used to define local angle functions on any Lagrangian submanifold of ${Q^*}^n$. We prove that a Lagrangian immersion into ${Q^*}^n$ can be seen as the Gauss map of a spacelike hypersurface of (real) anti-de Sitter space and relate the angle functions to the principal curvatures of this hypersurface. We also give a formula relating the mean curvature of the Lagran…
Let $ϕ:M\to\mathbb{S}^{n+1}\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+2}$ be an immersion of a complete $n$-dimensional oriented manifold. For any $v\in\mathbb{R}^{n+2}$, let us denote by $\ell_v:M\to\mathbb{R}$ the function given by $\ell_v(x)=ϕ(x),v$ and by $f_v:M\to\mathbb{R}$, the function given by $f_v(x)=ν(x),v$, where $ν:M\to\mathbb{S}^{n}$ is a Gauss map. We will prove that if $M$ has constant mean curvature, and, for some $v\ne{\bf 0}$ and some real number $λ$, we have that $\ell_v=λf_v$, then, $ϕ(M)$ is either a totally umbilical sphere or a Clifford hypersurface. As an application, we will use this resul…
A hyperkähler 4-metric with a triholomorphic SU(2) action gives rise to a family of confocal quadrics in Euclidean 3-space when cast in the canonical form of a hyperkähler 4-metric metric with a triholomorphic circle action. Moreover, at least in the case of geodesics orthogonal to the U(1) fibres, both the covariant Schrödinger and the Hamilton-Jacobi equation is separable and the system integrable.
For $n \geq 1$, the twistor space $\mathfrak{Z}(\mathbb{S}^{2n})$ of the conformal $2n$-sphere is biholomorphic to the Zariski closure, taken in the complex Grassmannian manifold $\mathbf{G}(n+1, 2n+2)$, of the set of graphs of skew-symmetric linear endomorphism of $\mathbb{C}^{n+1}$. We use this fact to describe a natural stratification of the twistor space $\mathfrak{Z}(\mathbb{S}^{2n})$ with $n \geq 3$, in terms of what we have called {\it generalised complex orthogonal Stiefel manifolds} of $\mathbb{C}^{n+1}$. In particular, the twistor space $\mathfrak{Z}(\mathbb{S}^{6})$ is biholomorphic…
We prove that there does not exist any real hypersurface in complex Grassmannians of rank two with semi-parallel structure Jacobi operator. With this result, the nonexistence of real hypersurface in complex Grassmannians of rank two with recurrent structure Jacobi operator is proved.
In this paper, we introduce a notion of quadratic Killing structure Jacobi operator (simply, Killing structure Jacobi operator) and its geometric meaning for real hypersurfaces in the complex two-plane Grassmannians. In addition, we give a classification theorem for Hopf real hypersurfaces with quadratic Killing structure Jacobi operator in complex two-plane Grassmannians.
We study three dimensional real hypersurfaces in CP^2 and CH^2 equipped with $xi$-parallel structure Jacobi operator. We prove that they are Hopf hypersurfaces and if additional $α\neq0$, we classify them.
The objective of the present paper is to prove the non-existence of real hypersurface with pseudo-parallel normal Jacobi operator in complex two-plane Grassmannians. As a corollary, we show that there does not exist any real hypersurface with semi-parallel or recurrent normal Jacobi operator in complex two-plane Grassmannians. This answers a question considered in [Monatsh Math, 172 (2013), 167-178] in negative.
Using the methods of moving frames, we study real hypersurfaces in complex projective space CP^2 and complex hyperbolic space CH^2 whose structure Jacobi operator has various special properties. Our results complement work of several other authors who worked on such hypersurfaces in CP^n and CH^n for n>2.
In this paper we prove some classification theorems of real hypersur- faces in Mn(c) satisfying certain conditions on the covariant derivative of the structure Jacobi operator. We also prove the non-existence of real hypersurfaces with Codazzi type structure Jacobi operator in Mn(c).
A contact hypersurface in a Kaehler manifold is a real hypersurface for which the induced almost contact metric structure determines a contact structure. We carry out a systematic study of contact hypersurfaces in Kaehler manifolds. We then apply these general results to obtain classifications of contact hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature in the complex quadric SO(n+2)/SO(n)SO(2) and its noncompact dual space SO(n,2)/SO(n)SO(2) for n > 2.
In this paper, we study the first eigenvalue of Jacobi operator on an $n$-dimensional non-totally umbilical compact hypersurface with constant mean curvature $H$ in the unit sphere $S^{n+1}(1)$. We give an optimal upper bound for the first eigenvalue of Jacobi operator, which only depends on the mean curvature $H$ and the dimension $n$.
In this paper, we have considered a new commuting condition, that is, $(R_ξϕ) S = S (R_ξϕ)$ \big(resp. $(\Bar{R}_Nϕ) S = S (\Bar{R}_Nϕ$)\big) between the restricted Jacobi operator~$R_ξϕ$ (resp. $\Bar{R}_Nϕ$), and the Ricci tensor $S$ for real hypersurfaces $M$ in $G_2({\mathbb C}^{m+2})$. In terms of this condition we give a complete classification for Hopf hypersurfaces $M$ in $G_2({\mathbb C}^{m+2})$.
In this paper, we introduce a new commuting condition between the structure Jacobi operator and symmetric (1,1)-type tensor field $T$, that is, $R_ξϕT=TR_ξϕ$, where $T=A$ or $T=S$ for Hopf hypersurfaces in complex hyperbolic two-plane Grassmannians. By using simultaneous diagonalzation for commuting symmetric operators, we give a complete classification of real hypersurfaces in complex hyperbolic two-plane Grassmannians with commuting condition respectively.
In this work we characterize certain immersed closed hypersurfaces of some ambient manifolds via the second eigenvalue of the Jacobi operator. First, we characterize the Clifford torus as the surface which maximizes the second eigenvalue of the Jacobi operator among all closed immersed orientable surfaces of $\mathbb S^3$ with genus bigger than zero. After, we characterize the slices of the warped product $I\times_h\mathbb S^n$, under a suitable hypothesis on the warping function $h:I\subset\mathbb R\to\mathbb R$, as the only hypersurfaces which saturate a certain integral inequality involving…
It is proved the non-existence of Hopf hypersurfaces in $G_{2}({\Bbb C}^{m+2})$, $m \geq 3$, whose normal Jacobi operator is semi-parallel, if the principal curvature of the Reeb vector field is non-vanishing and the component of the Reeb vector field in the maximal quaternionic subbundle ${\frak D}$ or its orthogonal complement ${\frak D}^{\bot}$ is invariant by the shape operator.
Let $M$ be a real hypersurface of a complex space form with almost contact metric structure $(ϕ, ξ, η, g)$. In this paper, we study real hypersurfaces in a complex space form whose structure Jacobi operator $R_ξ=R(\cdot,ξ)ξ$ is $ξ$-parallel. In particular, we prove that the condition $\nabla_ξ R_ξ=0$ characterizes the homogeneous real hypersurfaces of type $A$ in a complex projective space or a complex hyperbolic space when $R_ξ ϕS=S ϕR_ξ$ holds on $M$, where $S$ denotes the Ricci tensor of type (1,1) on $M$.
This paper presents two results conserning real hypersurfaces in CP^{2} and CH^{2}. More precisely, it is proved that real hypersurfaces equipped with structure Jacobi operator satisfying condition $\mathcal{L}_{X}l=\nabla_{X}l$, where \emph{X} is a vector field orthogonal to structure vector field $ξ$, do not exist. Additional real hypersurfaces equipped with shape operator \emph{A} satisfying relation $\mathcal{L}_{X}A=\nabla_{X}A$, where \emph{X} is a vector field orthogonal to $ξ$, do not exist.
In this paper we study real hypersurfaces in the complex quadric space $Q^m$ whose structure Jacobi operator commutes with their structure tensor field. We show that the Reeb curvature $α$ of such hypersurfaces is constant and if $α$ is non-zero then the hypersurface is a tube around a totally geodesic submanifold $\mathbb{C} P^k \subset Q^m$, where $m=2k$. We also consider Reeb flat hypersurfaces, namely, when the Reeb curvature is zero. We show that the tube around $\mathbb{C} P^k \subset Q^m$ ($m=2k$), with radius $\fracπ{4}$ is the only Reeb flat Hopf hypersurface with commuting Ricci tens…
Using generalized Tanaka-Webster connection, we considered a real hypersurface $M$ in a complex two-plane Grassmannian $G_2({\mathbb C}^{m+2})$ when the GTW Reeb Lie derivative of the structure Jacobi operator coincides with the Reeb Lie derivative. Next using the method of simultaneous diagonalization, we prove a complete classification for a real hypersurface in $G_2({\mathbb C}^{m+2})$ satisfying such a condition. In this case, we have proved that $M$ is an open part of a tube around a totally geodesic $G_2({\mathbb C}^{m+1})$ in $G_2({\mathbb C}^{m+2})$.
Given a closed Riemannian manifold of dimenion less than eight, we prove a compactness result for the space of closed, embedded minimal hypersurfaces satisfying a volume bound and a uniform lower bound on the first eigenvalue of the stability operator. When the latter assumption is replaced by a uniform lower bound on the p-th Jacobi eigenvalue for p greater or equal than 2 one gains strong convergence to a smooth limit submanifold away from at most p-1 points.
Let $M$ be a real hypersurface in complex projective space. The almost contact metric structure on $M$ allows us to consider, for any nonnull real number $k$, the corresponding $k$-th generalized Tanaka-Webster connection on $M$ and, associated to it, a differential operator of first order of Lie type. Considering such a differential operator and Lie derivative we define, from the structure Jacobi operator $R_ξ$ on $M$ a tensor field of type (1,2), $R_{ξ_T}^{(k)}$. We obtain some classifications of real hypersurfaces for which $R_{ξ_T}^{(k)}$ is either symmetric or skew symmetric.
Let $x:M\to\mathbb{S}^{n+1}(1)$ be an n-dimensional compact hypersurface with constant scalar curvature $n(n-1)r,~r\geq 1$, in a unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n+1}(1),~n\geq 5$. We know that such hypersurfaces can be characterized as critical points for a variational problem of the integral $\int_MH dv$ of the mean curvature $H$. In this paper, we derive an optimal upper bound for the second eigenvalue of the Jacobi operator $J_s$ of $M$. Moreover, when $r>1$, the bound is attained if and only if $M$ is totally umbilical and non-totally geodesic, when $r=1$, the bound is attained if $M$ is the Riem…
An affine hypersurface is said to admit a pointwise symmetry, if there exists a subgroup of the automorphism group of the tangent space, which preserves (pointwise) the affine metric h, the difference tensor K and the affine shape operator S. In this paper, we deal with positive definite affine hypersurfaces of dimension three. First we solve an algebraic problem. We determine the non-trivial stabilizers G of the pair (K,S) under the action of SO(3) on an Euclidean vectorspace (V,h) and find a representative (canonical form of K and S) of each (SO(3)/G)-orbit. Then, we classify hypersurfaces a…
