We first show that any $4$-dimensional non-Ricci-flat steady gradient Ricci soliton singularity model must satisfy $|Rm|\leq cR$ for some positive constant $c$. Then, we apply the Hamilton-Ivey estimate to prove a quantitative lower bound…

It is shown that locally conformally flat Lorentzian gradient Ricci solitons are locally isometric to a Robertson-Walker warped product, if the gradient of the potential function is non null, and to a plane wave, if the gradient of the…

For a generalized soliton $(g,\xi,\eta,\beta,\gamma,\delta)$, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the dual $1$-form $\xi^{\flat}$ of the potential vector field $\xi$ to be a solution of the Schr\"{o}dinger-Ricci equation, a…

Gradient Ricci almost solitons were introduced by Pigola, Rigoli, Rimoldi and Setti. They are defined as solitons except that the metric coefficient is required to be a smooth function rather than a constant. It is shown that any almost…
