Abstract
The critical point equation arises as a critical point of the total scalar curvature functional defined on the space of constant scalar curvature metrics of a unit volume on a compact manifold. In this equation, there exists a function on the manifold that satisfies the following It has been conjectured that if is a solution of the critical point equation, then is Einstein and so is isometric to a standard sphere. In this paper, we show that this conjecture is true if the given Riemannian metric has positive isotropic curvature.
