Quasi-Einstein hypersurfaces of complex space forms (Q2246138)

Summary: Based on a well-known fact that there are no Einstein hypersurfaces in a nonflat complex space form, in this article, we study the quasi-Einstein condition, which gives a generalization of an Einstein metric, on a real hypersurface of a nonflat complex space form. For a real hypersurface with quasi-Einstein metric of a complex Euclidean space, we also give a classification. Since a gradient Ricci soliton is a special quasi-Einstein metric, our results improve some conclusions of Cho and Kimura.
