Abstract
Conformally flat pseudo-Riemannian manifolds with generalized Ricci recurrent, (GR)(n) structure are completely classified in this short report. A conformally flat generalized Ricci recurrent pseudo-Riemannian manifold is shown to be an Einstein manifold. In particular, a conformally flat generalized Ricci recurrent spacetime must be either a de Sitter spacetime or an anti-de Sitter spacetime.
