Let M be an irreducible Riemannian symmetric space. The index i(M ) of M is the minimal codimension of a totally geodesic submanifold of M. In [1] we proved that i(M ) is bounded from below by the rank rk(M) of M, that is, rk(M) ≤ i(M). In this paper we classify all irreducible Riemannian symmetric spaces M for which the equality holds, that is, rk(M) = i(M). In this context we also obtain an explicit classification of all non-semisimple maximal totally geodesic submanifolds in irreducible Riemannian symmetric spaces of noncompact type and show that they are closely related to irreducible symmetric R-spaces. We also determine the index of some symmetric spaces and classify the irreducible Riemannian symmetric spaces of noncompact type with i(M ) ∈ {4, 5, 6}.
