Abstract
In this paper, we show that a closed -dimensional generalized -Einstein manifold of constant scalar curvature with weakly radially zero Ricci curvature is isometric to either a sphere , or a product of a circle with an -dimensional Einstein manifold of positive Ricci curvature, up to finite cover and rescaling. Furthermore, if we assume has positive isotropic curvature, must be isometric to either a sphere , or a product of a circle with an -sphere.
