We study closed Einstein-Weyl structure on compact K-contact manifolds and prove that a compact K-contact manifold admitting a closed Einstein-Weyl structure is Einstein and Sasakian.

We view Weyl structures as generalizations of Riemannian metrics and study the critical points of geometric functional which involve scalar curvature, defined on the space of Weyl structures on a closed 4-manifold. The main goal here is to provide a framework to analyze critical Weyl structures by defining functionals, discussing function spaces and writing down basic formulas for the equations of critical points.
