K\"{a}hler Soliton Surfaces Are Generically Toric

Differential Geometry 2026-01-23 v2

Abstract

Let (M,g,ω,f,λ)(M, g, \omega, f, \lambda) be a K\"{a}hler gradient Ricci soliton in real dimension four. One first observes that it is an integrable Hamiltonian system in a classical sense. Indeed, all known complete examples are toric and the symmetry is intrinsically related to the potential function ff and the scalar curvature \SS\SS. While another article addresses the case that these functions are functionally dependent, this one considers the independent case. The main result states that the soliton admits a toric action under a generic assumption. That is, one assumes that the system is non-degenerate and the potential function ff is proper. Then there is an effective, completely integrable Hamiltonian toric T2\mathbb{T}^2- action on (M,ω)(M, \omega).

Comments

improve the main statement (using a result of Munteanu-Wang to remove an assumption for the steady case); improve the abstract and Introduction to make clearer the connection to another article
