We consider the decomposition of a compact-type symmetric space into a product of factors and show that the rank-one factors, when considered as totally geodesic submanifolds of the space, are isolated from inequivalent minimal submanifolds.

Nous considérons la décomposition d’un espace symétrique de type compact et nous montrons que les facteurs de rang 1, considérés comme sous-variétés de cet espace, sont isolés de toutes les sous-variétés minimales inéquivalentes.
