Abstract

In an $n$-dimensional complex hyperbolic space $\mathbb{C}H^n(c)$ of constant holomorphic sectional curvature $c (\lt 0)$, the horosphere HS, which is defined by ${\rm HS} = \lim_{r\to\infty}G(r)$, is one of nice examples in the class of real hypersurfaces. Here, $G(r)$ is a geodesic sphere of radius $r$ $(0 \lt r \lt \infty)$ in $\mathbb{C}H^n(c)$. The second author ([14]) gave a geometric characterization of HS. In this paper, motivated by this result, we study real hypersurfaces $M^{2n-1}$ isometrically immersed into an $n$-dimensional complex projective space $\mathbb{C}P^n(c)$ of constant holomorphic sectional curvature $c(\gt 0)$.
