Abstract
We study the classifying problem of immersed submanifolds in Hermitian symmetric spaces. Typically in this paper, we deal with real hypersurfaces in a complex two-plane Grassmannian G 2(ℂm+2) which has a remarkable geometric structure as a Hermitian symmetric space of rank 2. In relation to the generalized Tanaka-Webster connection, we consider a new concept of the parallel normal Jacobi operator for real hypersurfaces in G 2(ℂm+2) and prove non-existence of real hypersurfaces in G 2(ℂm+2) with generalized Tanaka-Webster parallel normal Jacobi operator.
