Abstract

In this sequel to our article on Hopf hypersurfaces of the homogeneous NK (nearly Kähler) manifold \({\mathbf {S}}^3\times {\mathbf {S}}^3\) (Hu and Yao in Ann Mat Pura Appl, 199:1147–1170, 2020), we continue working on the problem of determining the Hopf hypersurfaces of this ambient space for which the holomorphic distributions are preserved by the almost product structure of \({\mathbf {S}}^3\times {\mathbf {S}}^3\). As complements to existing results, we first show that no such Hopf hypersurfaces admit exactly four distinct principal curvatures. Then, as the second main result and an important step towards the solution of the preceding problem, we establish a complete classification of such Hopf hypersurfaces with five distinct constant principal curvatures.
