Abstract
The aim of this paper is to answer the question if there are three-dimensional real hypersurfaces in non-flat complex space forms whose covariant derivative with respect to the kth generalized Tanaka–Webster connection of a tensor field of type (1, 1) coincides with the Lie derivative of it either in direction of any vector field orthogonal to \(\xi \) or in direction of \(\xi \). The answer is given, in case the tensor field is the shape operator of a real hypersurface or the structure Jacobi operator of it.
