Abstract
A closed CR 3-manifold is said to have -positive pseudohermitian curvature if for any . We discover an obstruction for a closed CR 3-manifold to possess -positive pseudohermitian curvature. We classify closed three-dimensional CR Yamabe solitons according to -positivity and -negativity whenever and the potential function lies in the kernel of Paneitz operator. Moreover, we show that any closed three-dimensional CR torsion soliton must be the standard Sasakian space form. At last, we discuss the persistence of -positivity along the CR torsion flow starting from a pseudo-Einstein contact form.
