We show that, up to biholomorphism, there is at most one complete $T^n$-invariant shrinking gradient K\"ahler-Ricci soliton on a non-compact toric manifold $M$. We also establish uniqueness without assuming $T^n$-invariance if the Ricci…
We show that a shrinking Ricci soliton with positive sectional curvature must be compact. This extends a result of Perelman in dimension three and improves a result of Naber in dimension four, respectively.
We introduce a scalar invariant on manifolds with density which is analogous to the renormalized volume coefficient $v_3$ in conformal geometry. We show that this invariant is variational and that shrinking gradient Ricci solitons are…
The goal of this article is to investigate complete noncompact warped product gradient Ricci solitons. Nonexistence results, estimates for the warping function and for its gradient are proven. When the soliton is steady or expanding these…
We show that a four-dimensional complete gradient shrinking Ricci soliton with positive isotropic curvature is either a quotient of S^4 or a quotient of S^3 cross R. This gives a clean classification result removing the earlier additional…
In this paper we prove that the Sobolev inequality, the logarithmic Sobolev inequality, the Schr\"odinger heat kernel upper bound, the Faber-Krahn inequality, the Nash inequality and the Rozenblum-Cwikel-Lieb inequality all equivalently…
In the first part of the paper we derive integral curvature estimates for complete gradient shrinking Ricci solitons. Our results and the recent work of Lopez-Rio imply rigidity of gradient shrinking Ricci solitons with harmonic Weyl…
We study gradient Ricci solitons with maximal symmetry. First we show that there are no non-trivial homogeneous gradient Ricci solitons. Thus the most symmetry one can expect is an isometric cohomogeneity one group action. Many examples of…
In this paper, we investigate curvature pinching phenomena in complete non-compact asymptotically conical gradient expanding Ricci solitons and establish several Hamilton-Ivey type curvature pinching estimates. These results are parallel to…
In this paper we consider Riemannian manifolds of dimension at least $3$, with nonnegative Ricci curvature and Euclidean Volume Growth. For every open bounded subset with smooth boundary we establish the validity of an optimal Minkowski…
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 study volume growth of gradient steady Ricci solitons. We show that if the potential function satisfies a uniform condition, then the soliton has at most Euclidean volume growth.
In this short note, using G\"unther's volume comparison theorem and Yokota's gap theorem on complete shrinking gradient Ricci solitons, we prove that for any complete shrinking gradient Ricci soliton $(M^{n},g,f)$ with sectional curvature…
This short note concerns with two inequalities in the geometry of gradient Ricci solitons $(g, f, \lambda )$ on a smooth manifold $M$. These inequalities provide some relationships between the curvature of the Riemannian metric $g$ and the…
In this paper, we give a delay estimate of scalar curvature for a complete non-compact expanding (or steady) gradient Ricci soliton with nonnegative Ricci curvature. As an application, we prove that any complete non-compact expanding (or…
We construct an expanding gradient Ricci soliton in dimension three over the topological manifold R x T^2 (the product of a line and a torus) that aproaches asymptotically a constant curvature cusp at one end, and a flat manifold on the…
We study the stability of non compact steady and expanding gradient Ricci solitons. We first show that strict linear stability implies dynamical stability. Then we give various sufficient geometric conditions ensuring the strict linear…
