Abstract: We wish to attack the problems that H.~Anciaux and K.~Panagiotidou posed in [1], for non-degenerate real hypersurfaces in indefinite complex projective space. We will slightly change these authors' point of view, obtaining cleaner equations for the almost contact metric structure. To make the theory meaningful, we construct new families of non-degenerate Hopf real hypersurfaces whose shape operator is diagonalisable, and one Hopf example with degenerate metric and non-diagonalisable shape operator. Next, we obtain a rigidity result. We classify those real hypersurfaces which are $eta$-umbilical. As a consequence, we characterize some of our new examples as those whose Reeb vector field $xi$ is Killing.

Review text

There are many works about real hypersurfaces in complex space forms. In a recent paper, \textit{H. Anciaux} and \textit{K. Panagiotidou} [Differ. Geom. Appl. 42, 1--14 (2015; Zbl 1331.53077)] developed a theory for non-degenerate real hypersurfaces in complex and para-complex nonflat indefinite space forms and put several open problems. In the present paper, the authors develop some ideas of this theory in the case when the ambient space is a nonflat indefinite complex projective space. New examples of Hopf real hypersurfaces of several types are constructed, some of them answer positively problems formulated by Anciaux and Panagiotidou. A classification conjecture on these new examples is formulated. Further, a rigidity result on real hypersurfaces is proved and classifications of some special situations are given.
