Based on a well-known fact that there are no Einstein hypersurfaces in a non-flat complex space form, in this article we study the quasi-Einstein condition, which is a generalization of an Einstein metric, on the real hyersurface of a…

We define a complex connection on a real hypersurface of $\C^{n+1}$ which is naturally inherited from the ambient space. Using a system of Codazzi-type equations, we classify connected real hypersurfaces in $\C^{n+1}$, $n\ge 2$, which are…
