The main purpose of this paper is to show that a normalized non-steady gradient Ricci soliton (M,g,f,{\lambda}) of dimension n is trivial if and only if its scalar curvature S satisfies the equality S={\lambda}(f+(n/2)).
In this paper we prove that any asymptotically cylindrical gradient shrinking Ricci soliton is isometric to a cylinder.
We classify and expose all the gradient Ricci solitons on complete surfaces, open or closed, with curvature bounded below, and possibly with a discrete set of cone-like singular points that arise naturally. We give a precise qualitative…
We produce new examples of non-K\"ahler complete expanding gradient Ricci solitons on trivial vector bundles over a product of Einstein manifolds with positive scalar curvature.
In this paper we consider a perturbation of the Ricci solitons equation proposed in \cite{jpb1} and studied in \cite{CaMa} and we classify noncompact gradient shrinkers with bounded nonnegative sectional curvature.
We discuss the geometry of homogeneous Ricci solitons. After showing the nonexistence of compact homogeneous and noncompact steady homogeneous solitons, we concentrate on the study of left invariant Ricci solitons. We show that, in the…
In this note, we complete the classification of the geometry of non-compact two-dimensional gradient Ricci solitons. As a consequence, we obtain two corollaries: First, a complete two-dimensional gradient Ricci soliton has bounded…
We construct an example of an asymptotically conical (AC) non-K\"ahler expanding gradient Ricci soliton that has a K\"ahler tangent cone at infinity. This yields an example of a K\"ahler cone that can be desingularised by a smooth AC…
In this paper, we give a description for steady Ricci solitons with a linear decay of sectional curvature. In particular, we classify all 3-dimensional steady Ricci solitons and 4-dimensional $\kappa$-noncollpased steady Ricci solitons with…
In this paper, we prove that expanding gradient Ricci solitons with (positively) pinched Ricci curvature are trivial ones. Namely, they are either compact or flat.
In this article we have showed that a gradient $\rho$-Einstein soliton with a vector field of bounded norm and satisfying some other conditions is isometric to the Euclidean sphere. Later, we have proved that a non-trivial complete gradient…
The purpose of this article is to study an $f$-cosymplectic manifold $M$ admitting Ricci solitons. Here we consider mainly two classes of Ricci solitons on $f$-cosymplectic manifolds. One is the class of contact Ricci solitons. The other is…
In this note, we study the classification of four-dimensional complete gradient steady and expanding Ricci solitons. Specifically, under the asymptotically cylindrical (respectively, asymptotically conical) assumption, we classify gradient…
In this paper, we continue to study the generalized Ricci flow. We give a criterion on steady gradient Ricci soliton on complete and noncompact Riemannian manifolds that is Ricci-flat, and then introduce a natural flow whose stable points…
In this paper, we study the fundamental group of the complete steady gradient Ricci soliton with nonnegative sectional curvature. We prove that the fundamental group of such a Ricci soliton is either trivial or infinite. As a corollary, we…
The aim of this note is to prove that any compact non-trivial almost Ricci soliton $\big(M^n,\,g,\,X,\,\lambda\big)$ with constant scalar curvature is isometric to a Euclidean sphere $\Bbb{S}^{n}$. As a consequence we obtain that every…
In 2002, using a variational method, Lauret classified five-dimensional nilsolitons. In this work, using the algebraic Ricci soliton equation, we obtain the same classification. We show that, among ten classes of five-dimensional…
We first investigate the asymptotics of conical expanding gradient Ricci solitons by proving sharp decay rates to the asymptotic cone both in the generic and the asymptotically Ricci flat case. We then establish a compactness theorem…
In this paper, we prove some classification results for four-dimensional gradient Ricci solitons. For a four-dimensional gradient shrinking Ricci soliton with $div^4Rm^\pm=0$, we show that it is either Einstein or a finite quotient of…
We show for a complete noncompact steady Ricci soliton that there exists a sequence {x_i} of points tending to infinity such that |Rc|(x_i) limits to zero.
