Abstract

First we introduce the notions of \(\eta \)-parallel and \(\eta \)-commuting shape operator for real hypersurfaces in the complex quadric \(Q^m = SO_{m+2}/SO_mSO_2\). Next we give a complete classification of real hypersurfaces in the complex quadric \(Q^m\) with such kind of shape operators. By virtue of this classification we give a new characterization of ruled real hypersurface foliated by complex totally geodesic hyperplanes \(Q^{m-1}\) in \(Q^m\) whose unit normal vector field in \(Q^m\) is \(\mathfrak {A}\)-principal.
