Abstract

Let (M5,g)(M^5,g) be a five-dimensional non-trivial simply-connected compact quasi-Einstein manifold with boundary. If MM has constant scalar RR, Johnatan Costa, Ernani Ribeiro Jr, and Detang Zhou show that RR = ((m5)k+20)/(mk+4)λ((m-5)k+20)/(m-k+4)\lambda for some k{0,2,3,4}k\in\{0,2,3,4\}. Both cases of k=0k=0 and k=4k=4 are already classified. In this paper we will prove that the case k=3k=3 is rigid.
