1. Introduction<br />

A Riemannian <strong>symmetric</strong> space M is called a<br />

<strong>symmetric</strong> R-space if M is realized as an orbit <strong>of</strong> a linear<br />

isotropy representation <strong>of</strong> a Riemannian <strong>symmetric</strong> space<br />

<strong>of</strong> compact type.<br />

Every <strong>Hermitian</strong> <strong>symmetric</strong> space M <strong>of</strong> compact type is<br />

a <strong>symmetric</strong> R-space since M is realized as an adjoint<br />

orbit <strong>of</strong> a compact semisimple Lie group.<br />
