A non-existence result for compact Einstein warped products

Abstract: Warped products provide a rich class of physically significant geometric objects. The existence of compact Einstein warped products was questioned in Besse (1987 Einstein Manifolds, section 9.103). It is shown that there exists a metric on every compact manifold B such that (non-trivial) Einstein warped products, with base B, cannot be constructed.

“…In 2003, Kim and Kim [17] gave the partial answer of Besse question and showed that there does not exist an Einstein warped product space with nonconstant warping function if the scalar curvature is non-positive and base is compact. In 2005, Mustafa [22] generalized the result of Kim and Kim [17] and proved the same result with no condition on scalar curvature.…”

“…He prove that an Einstein warped product space with compact base and nonpositive scalar curvature is just Riemannian product. In 2005, Mustafa [17] construct a result for Einstein warped space with no condition on scalar curvature that is the extension of the theorem in [4]. In [18], D. Dumitru gave some obstructions to the existence of compact Einstein warped products.…”
