| contents | In this article, we investigate a gradient almost Ricci soliton with harmonic Weyl tensor. We first prove that its Ricci tensor has at most three distinct eigenvalues of constant multiplicities in a neighborhood of a regular point of the potential function. Then, we classify those with exactly two distinct eigenvalues. It is worth mentioning that the case with exactly one eigenvalue has already been settled elsewhere. Our results are based on a local representation of these manifolds as multiply warped products of a one-dimensional base, having at most two Einstein fibers, which we also obtain in this paper. These results extend a result by Catino, who assumes, in addition, that the Weyl tensor is radially flat, and a result by Kim, who considers the four-dimensional case. |
