Abstract: We present a characterization of -dimensional Lorentzian manifolds with constant Ricci scalar curvature. It is well known that every -dimensional Lorentzian manifolds is conformally flat, so we rewrite the Ricci scalar curvature in terms of the conformal factor and we study the solutions of the corresponding differential equations. Several remarkable examples are provided.
