1-type submanifolds on non-Euclidean complex space forms (Q1281182)

In [Kodai Math. J. 6, 88-99 (1983; Zbl 0518.53057)], \textit{A. Ros} considered the first standard embedding \(\phi\) of the complex projective space \(\mathbb{C} P^{n}\) in a certain Euclidean space and studied its submanifolds in the light of the new embedding. In [\textit{O. J. Garay} and \textit{A. Romero}, Tsukuba J. Math. 14, 293-313 (1990; Zbl 0743.53030)], an embedding, which we also denote by \(\phi\), of the complex hyperbolic space in a pseudo-Euclidean space with parallel second fundamental form is constructed. Ros' idea, along with the above embeddings \(\phi\), have been used to study submanifolds in complex space forms by several authors. In this paper, the author classifies submanifolds in non-Euclidean complex space forms \(x:M\rightarrow \mathbb{C} Q^{n}\) such that \(\phi\cdot x\) is proper for the Laplacian of \(M\), a problem which had been considered previously by other authors through imposing some additional conditions on \(M\). The present author solves the classification problem by making no a priori assumption on \(M\).
