On non-compact gradient solitons

Differential Geometry 2023-06-12 v2

Abstract

In this paper we extend existing results for generalized solitons, called qq-solitons, to the complete case by considering non-compact solitons. By placing regularity conditions on the vector field XX and curvature conditions on MM, we are able to use the chosen properties of the tensor qq to see that such non-compact qq-solitons are stationary and qq-flat. We conclude by applying our results to the examples of ambient obstruction solitons, Cotton solitons, and Bach solitons to demonstrate the utility of these general theorems for various flows.
