Let \(QP^n(c)\) \((n\geq 2)\) be a \(4n\)-dimensional quaternion projective space with constant quaternion sectional curvature \(c>0\), \(M\) be an \(n\)-dimensional Riemannian manifold isometrically immersed in \(QP^n(c)\) with \(\sigma\) as its second fundamental form. In the paper under review, the authors prove some pinching theorems. Two of them are the following. (1) Let \(M\) be a compact totally real minimal submanifold in \(QP^n(c)\). If \(\|\sigma\|\leq (n+1) \frac c6\), then either \(M\) is totally geodesic in \(QP^n(c)\) or \(n=2\) and \(M\) is a flat surface in \(QP^2(c)\) with parallel \(\sigma\) and a parallel normal subbundle of fiber dimension 4. (2) Let \(M\) be a complete totally real minimal submanifold in \(QP^n(c)\). Then either \(M\) is totally geodesic in \(QP^n(c)\) or \(\sup\| \sigma\|^2\geq (n+1) \frac c6\).
