Rigidity of positively curved shrinking Ricci solitons in dimension four

Differential Geometry 2019-09-06 v2

Abstract

We classify four-dimensional shrinking Ricci solitons satisfying Sec124RSec \geq \frac{1}{24} R, where SecSec and RR denote the sectional and the scalar curvature, respectively. They are isometric to either R4\mathbb{R}^{4} (and quotients), S4\mathbb{S}^{4}, RP4\mathbb{RP}^{4} or CP2\mathbb{CP}^{2} with their standard metrics.
