Abstract

Let ø and A be denoted by the structure tensor field of type (1,1) and by the shape operator of a real hypersurface in a complex space form $M_{n}$ (c), c $\neq$ 0 respectively. The main purpose of this paper is to prove that if a real hypersurface in $M_{n}$ (c) satisfies $R_{ξ}$ øA = $AøR_{ξ}$, then the structure vector field ξ is principal, where $R_{ξ}$ / is the Jacobi operator with respect to ξ.
