Let be an (n + p)-dimensional Kaehler manifold of constant holomorphic sectional curvature . B. O'Neill [3] proved the following result.

PROPOSITION A. Let M be an n-dimensional complex submanifold immersed in . If and if the holomorphic sectional curvature of M with respect to the induced Kaehler metric is constant, then M is totally geodesic.

He also gave the following example: There is a Kaehler imbedding of an w-dimensional complex projective space of constant holomorphic sectional curvature ½ into an -dimensional complex projective space of constant holomorphic sectional curvature 1. This shows that Proposition A is the best possible.
