Semi-conformally flat singly warped product manifolds and applications

This paper investigates singly warped product manifolds admitting semi-conformal curvature tensors. The form of the Riemann tensor and Ricci tensor of the base and fiber manifolds of a semi-conformally flat singly warped product manifold are provided. It is demonstrated that the fiber manifold of a semi-conformally flat warped product manifold has a constant curvature. Sufficient requirements on the warping function to ensure that the base manifold is a quasi-Einstein or an Einstein manifold are provided
