    Consider an \(n\)-dimensional, conformally flat, minimal, Lagrangian submanifold \(M\) of an \(n\)-dimensional Kähler manifold \(\widetilde M\) of constant holomorphic sectional curvature \(4c\). The paper studies such submanifolds in terms of multiplicities of the eigenvalues of the Schouten tensor, for \(n\geq4\). Since conformally flat Riemannian metrics in dimension \(n\geq4\) have vanishing Weyl tensor, their Schouten tensors are of Codazzi type, and the article under review proves the following two theorems: \textbf{Theorem.} If the Schouten tensor of \(M\) does not admit an eigenvalue of multiplicity one, then it has a single eigenvalue. The submanifold \(M\) is then of constant sectional curvature \(\bar c\) and is either totally geodesic or \(c=1, \bar c=0\), and \(M\) is congruent to an open part of the Lagrangian torus (detailed in the introduction before Theorem 1.1). \textbf{Theorem.} If the Schouten tensor of \(M\) admits exactly one eigenvalue of multiplicity one, then it admits only one eigenvalue of higher multiplicity. The submanifold \(M\) is then locally isometric to a warped product \(I\times M_0\), where \(I\subset\mathbb{R}\) is an interval and \(M_0\) is a manifold with constant sectional curvature. The next three theorems, proven in the paper, are local classification theorems for the following specific situations: \begin{itemize} \item[1.] Assume \(\widetilde M\) is \(\mathbb{C}^n\), \(n\geq4\), and the Schouten tensor admits exactly one eigenvalue of multiplicity one. In this case, three normal forms are obtained, two of which appear to be missing in a previous work by \textit{D. E. Blair} [Can. Math. Bull. 50, No. 3, 321--333 (2007; Zbl 1149.53048)]. \item[2.] When \(\widetilde M\) is \(\mathbb{CP}^n(4)\), \(n\geq4\), and the Schouten tensor admits exactly one eigenvalue of multiplicity one. Three normal forms are obtained. \item[3.] When \(\widetilde M\) is the complex hyperbolic space \(\mathbb{CH}^n(-4)\), \(n\geq4\), and the Schouten tensor admits exactly one eigenvalue of multiplicity one. Four normal forms are obtained. \end{itemize} The mentioned normal forms can be found in Theorems 1.5, 1.6 and 1.7 of the paper, respectively.
