We investigate K\"ahler metrics conformal to gradient Ricci solitons, and base metrics of warped product gradient Ricci solitons. The latter we name quasi-solitons. A main assumption that is employed is functional dependence of the soliton…

In this study, we provide some classifications for half-conformally flat gradient $f$-almost Ricci solitons, denoted by $(M, g, f)$, in both Lorentzian and neutral signature. First, we prove that if $||\nabla f||$ is a non-zero constant,…

The local structure of half conformally flat gradient Ricci almost solitons is investigated, showing that they are locally conformally flat in a neighborhood of any point where the gradient of the potential function is non-null. In…
