Abstract:

In this paper we consider conformally flat (QE)4 spacetime and obtained several important results. We study application of conformally flat (QE)4 spacetime in general relativity and Ricci soliton structure in a conformally flat (QE)4 perfect fluid spacetime.



Keywords:

Quasi-Einstein spacetime, perfect fluid spacetime, Einstein field equation, energy momentum tensor, Ricci solitons, conformal curvature tensor.
