Abstract: Let Csm+p+1Rs+1m+p+2 (m2, p1, 0sp) be the standard (punched) light-cone in the Lorentzian space Rs+1m+p+2, and let Y:MmCsm+p+1 be a space-like immersed submanifold of dimension m. Then, in addition to the induced metric g on Mm, there are three other important invariants of Y: the Blaschke tensor A, the conic second fundamental form B, and the conic Möbius form C; these are naturally defined by Y and are all invariant under the group of rigid motions on Csm+p+1. In particular, g,A,B,C form a complete invariant system for Y, as was originally shown by C. P. Wang for the case in which s=0. The submanifold Y is said to be Blaschke isoparametric if its conic Möbius form C 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 Csm+p+1 for the extremal case in which s=p. We obtain a complete classification theorem for all the m-dimensional space-like Blaschke isoparametric submanifolds in Cpm+p+1 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
