Abstract

Studying the condition \({h(FX,Y)-h(X,FY)=g(FX,Y)\eta, 0\ne\eta\in T^\perp(M)}\) on the almost contact structure F and on the second fundamental form h of n-dimensional real submanifolds M of complex hyperbolic space \({\mathbb {CH}^{\frac{n+p}{2}}}\) when their maximal holomorphic tangent subspace is (n − 1)-dimensional, we obtain the complete classification of such submanifolds M and we characterize certain model spaces in complex hyperbolic space.
