The axioms of indefinite hemi-slant planes and spheres

Abstract

We define the axiom of indefinite hemi-slant 3-planes and 3-spheres for an indefinite almost Hermitian manifold with lightlike submanifolds. We prove that if an indefinite Kaehler manifold satisfies the axioms of indefinite hemi-slant 3-planes and 3-spheres for some slant angle θ ∈ (0, π/2) then it is an indefinite complex space form.
