Let M be a real hypersurface with almost contact metric structure $({\phi},{\xi},{\eta},g)$ in a non flat complex space form $M_n(c)$. In this paper, we prove that if the structure Jacobi operator $R_{\xi}$ is ${\xi}$-parallel and the Ricci tensor S commutes with the structure operator $\phi$, then a real hypersurface in $M_n(c)$ is a Hopf hypersurface. Further, we characterize such Hopf hypersurface in $M_n(c)$.

We prove that if a real hypersurface with constant mean curvature of a complex space form satisfying ▽$_{ξ/}$S = 0 and Sξ = $\sigma$ξ for a smooth function $\sigma$, then the structure vector field ξ is principal, where S denotes the Ricci tensor of the hypersurface.

We obtain some characterizations of a pseudo Ricci-parallel real hypersurface in a quaternionic projective space $QP^{n}$ and find the condition that M is locally congruent to a geodesic hypersphere of $QP^{n}$ .

Niebergall and Ryan posed many open problems on real hypersurfaces in complex space forms. One of them is "Are there any Ricci-parallel real hypersurfaces in complex projective space $P_2C$ or complex hyperbolic space $H_2C$\ulcorner" The purpose of present paper is to prove the nonexistence of such hypersurfaces.

This paper is devoted to study Ricci semi-symmetric lightlike hypersurfaces of an indefinite cosymplectic space form with structure vector field tangent to hypersurface. The condition for Ricci tensor of lightlike hypersurface of indefinite cosymplectic space form to be semi-symmetric and parallel have been obtained. An example of non-totally geodesic Ricci semi-symmetric lightlike hypersurface in $R^7_2$ have been given.

It is known that there are no real hypersurfaces with parallel Ricci tensor in a nonflat complex space form ([6], [9]). In this paper we investigate real hypersurfaces in a complex projective space $P_n\mathbb{C}$ using some conditions of the Ricci tensor S which are weaker than ${\nabla}S=0$. We characterize Hopf hypersurfaces of $P_n\mathbb{C}$.

In this paper, we prove that if the structure Jacobi operator $R_{\xi}-parallel\;and\;R_{\xi}$ commutes with the Ricci tensor S, then a real hypersurface with non-negative scalar curvature of a nonflat complex space form $M_{n}(C)$ is a Hopf hypersurface. Further, we characterize such Hopf hypersurface in $M_{n}(C)$.

We prove that a real hypersurface M in a complex space form Mn(c), $c{\neq}0$, whose Ricci operator and structure tensor commute each other on the holomorphic distribution and the Ricci operator is ${\eta}-parallel$, is a Hopf hypersurface. We also give a characterization of this hypersurface.

We know that there are no real hypersurfaces with parallel Ricci tensor or parallel structure Jacobi operator in a nonflat complex space form (See [4], [6], [10] and [11]). In this paper we investigate real hypersurfaces M in a nonflat complex space form $M_n(c)$ under the condition that ${\nabla}_{\varepsilon}S=0\;and\;{\nabla}_{\varepsilon}R_{\varepsilon}=0,\;where\;S\;and\;R_{\varepsilon}$ respectively denote the Ricci tensor and the structure Jacobi operator of M in $M_n(c)$.

The paper deals with lightlike hypersurfaces which are locally symmetric, semi-symmetric and Ricci semi-symmetric in indefinite Kenmotsu manifold having constant $\bar{\phi}$-holomorphic sectional curvature c. We obtain that these hypersurfaces are totally goedesic under certain conditions. The non-existence condition of locally symmetric lightlike hyper-surfaces are given. Some Theorems of specific lightlike hypersurfaces are established. We prove, under a certain condition, that in lightlike hyper-surfaces of an indefinite Kenmotsu space form, tangent to the structure vector field, the parallel, semi-parallel, local symmetry, semi-symmetry and Ricci semi-symmetry notions are equivalent.
