We show that any real Kähler Euclidean submanifold f : M 2 n 2 n + p with either non-negative Ricci curvature or non-negative holomorphic sectional curvature has index of relative nullity greater than or equal to 2 n 2 p . Moreover, if equality holds everywhere, then the submanifold must be a product of Euclidean hypersurfaces almost everywhere, and the splitting is global provided that M 2 n is complete. In particular, we conclude that the only real Kähler submanifolds M 2 n in 3 n that have either positive Ricci curvature or positive holomorphic sectional curvature are products of n orientable surfaces in 3 with positive Gaussian curvature. Further applications of our main result are also given.

AB - We show that any real Kähler Euclidean submanifold $f:M^{2n}\rightarrow \mathbb {R}^{2n+p}$ with either non-negative Ricci curvature or non-negative holomorphic sectional curvature has index of relative nullity greater than or equal to $2n−2p$. Moreover, if equality holds everywhere, then the submanifold must be a product of Euclidean hypersurfaces almost everywhere, and the splitting is global provided that $M^{2n}$ is complete. In particular, we conclude that the only real Kähler submanifolds $M^{2n}$ in $\mathbb {R}^{3n}$ that have either positive Ricci curvature or positive holomorphic sectional curvature are products of n orientable surfaces in $\mathbb {R}^3$ with positive Gaussian curvature. Further applications of our main result are also given.
