Along a transversal geodesic γ whose tangent belongs to the contact distribution D, we define the transversal Jacobi operator Rγ=R(·,γ˙)γ˙ on an almost contact Riemannian manifold M. Then, using the transversal Jacobi operator Rγ, we give a new characterization of the Sasakian sphere. In the second part, we characterize the complete ruled real hypersurfaces in complex hyperbolic space.

AbstractIt is known that there are no real hypersurfaces with parallel structure Jacobi operators in a nonflat complex space form. In this paper, we classify real hypersurfaces in a nonflat complex space form whose structure Jacobi operator is cyclic-parallel.

AbstractA pseudo-Riemannian manifold is said to be timelike (spacelike) Osserman if the Jordan form of the Jacobi operator Kx is independent of the particular unit timelike (spacelike) tangent vector X. The first main result is that timelike (spacelike) Osserman manifold (M, g) of signature (2, 2) with the diagonalizable Jacobi operator is either locally rank-one symmetric or flat. In the nondiagonalizable case the characteristic polynomial of Kx has to have a triple zero, which is the other main result. An important step in the proof is based on Walker's study of pseudo-Riemannian manifolds admitting parallel totally isotropic distributions. Also some interesting additional geometric properties of Osserman type manifolds are established. For the nondiagonalizable Jacobi operators some of the examples show a nature of the Osserman condition for Riemannian manifolds different from that of pseudo-Riemannian manifolds.

In 1972, Nomizu and Rodriguez [5] found the following characterization of the complete umbilic submanifolds of Euclidean space.Theorem A. Let Mn, n ≥ 2, be a connected, complete Riemannian manifold isometrically immersed in a Euclidean space Em. Every Morse function of the form Lp has index 0 or n at all of its critical points if and only if Mnis embedded as a Euclidean n-subspace or a Euclidean n-sphere in Em.

AbstractIn this paper we give a characterization of a real hypersurface of Type (A) in complex two-plane GrassmanniansG2(ℂm+2), which means a tube over a totally geodesicG2(ℂm+1) inG2(ℂm+2), by means of the Reeb parallel structure Jacobi operator ∇εRε= 0.

We complete the classification of ruled real hypersurfaces with shape operator of constant norm in nonflat complex space forms by showing the existence of a unique inhomogeneous example in the complex hyperbolic space.

The Levi-Civita connection and the k-th generalized Tanaka-Webster connection are defined on a real hypersurface M in a non-flat complex space form. For any nonnull constant k and any vector field X tangent to M the k-th Cho operator F X ( k ) is defined and is related to both connections. If X belongs to the maximal holomorphic distribution D on M, the corresponding operator does not depend on k and is denoted by F X and called Cho operator. In this paper, real hypersurfaces in non-flat space forms such that F X S = S F X , where S denotes the Ricci tensor of M and a further condition is satisfied, are classified.

AbstractWe study classifying problems for real hypersurfaces in a complex two-plane Grassmannian G2(ℂm+2). In relation to the generalized Tanaka–Webster connection, we consider a new concept of parallel normal Jacobi operator for real hypersurfaces in G2(ℂm+2) and prove that a real hypersurface in G2(ℂm+2) with generalized Tanaka–Webster 𝔇⊥-parallel normal Jacobi operator is locally congruent to an open part of a tube around a totally geodesic quaternionic projective space ℍPn in G2(ℂm+2), where m = 2n.
