  • We study hypersurfaces in the Euclidean space with the following property: the tangential part of the position vector has constant length. As a result, we prove that among the connected and complete hypersurfaces in the Euclidean space, only the hypersphere centered at the origin satisfies the property.

  • We want to treat this problem for real hypersurfaces in a complex hyperbolic space $J_n(C)$. Thus it seems to be natural to consider some problems concerned with the estimation of the Ricci tensor for real hypersurfaces in $H_n(C)$. In this paper we will find a new tensorial formula concerned with the Ricci tensor and give it a characterization of horospheres and geodesic hyperspheres in a complex hyperbolic space $H_n(C)$.

  • In [2] we proved that if the minimum of the sectional curvature of a compact real minimal hypersurface of CP$^{m}$ is 1/(2m-1), then M is the geodesic hypersphere. This result was generalized in [8] to the case of M is a generic submanifold with flat normal connection. The purpose of the present paper is to prove a following generalization of theorems in [2] and [8].
