A note on generalized quasi‐Einstein manifolds

In this note, we get a necessary and sufficient condition such that the scalar curvature of generalized m‐quasi‐Einstein manifold with $m=1$ is constant. In particular, we discuss a class of generalized quasi‐Einstein manifolds which are more general than $(m,\rho )$‐quasi‐Einstein manifolds and prove that these manifolds with dimension four are either Einstein or locally conformally flat under some suitable conditions.
