Geodesic mappings of compact quasi-Einstein spaces, II

Abstract

The paper treats geodesic mappings of quasi-Einstein spaces with gradient defining vector. Previously the authors defined three types of these spaces. In the present paper it is proved that there are no quasi-Einstein spaces of special type. It is demonstrated that quasi-Einstein spaces of main type are closed with respect to geodesic mappings. The spaces of particular type are proved to be geodesic $D$-symmetric spaces.
