Abstract
Let \(x: M \rightarrow \mathbb {Q}^{n+1}_1\) be an \(n (n\ge 4)\)-dimensional conformal regular spacelike hypersurface in the conformal space \(\mathbb {Q}^{n+1}_1\) with vanishing conformal form. If x is a conformal Blaschke isoparametric spacelike hypersurface in \(\mathbb {Q}^{n+1}_1\) with three distinct conformal principal curvatures, one of which is simple or x is of parallel conformal Blaschke tensor, we obtain some classification of such conformal regular spacelike hypersurface x.
