Abstract: Let C (, , ) be the standard (punched) light-cone in the Lorentzian space , and let C be a space-like immersed submanifold of dimension . Then, in addition to the induced metric on , there are three other important invariants of : the Blaschke tensor , the conic second fundamental form , and the conic Möbius form ; these are naturally defined by and are all invariant under the group of rigid motions on C. In particular, form a complete invariant system for , as was originally shown by C. P. Wang for the case in which . The submanifold is said to be Blaschke isoparametric if its conic Möbius form vanishes identically and all of its Blaschke eigenvalues are constant. In this paper, we study the space-like Blaschke isoparametric submanifolds of a general codimension in the light-cone C for the extremal case in which . We obtain a complete classification theorem for all the -dimensional space-like Blaschke isoparametric submanifolds in C of constant scalar curvature, and of two distinct Blaschke eigenvalues.

Key words: Conic Möbius form, parallel Blaschke tensor, induced metric, conic second fundamental form, stationary submanifolds, constant scalar curvature
