Let x: MnEm be an isometric immersion of an n-dimensional Riemannian manifold into the m-dimensional Euclidean space. Then the map (where t denotes transpose) is called the quadric representation of Mn. In this paper, we study and classify hypersurfaces in the Euclidean space Em which satisfy , where B and C are two constant matrices, and Δ is the Laplacian operator of Mn. Some classification results are obtained.
