We produce new non-K\"ahler complete steady gradient Ricci solitons whose asymptotics combine those of the Bryant solitons and the Hamilton cigar. We also obtain a family of complete Ricci-flat metrics with asymptotically locally conical…

Let $(M, g, J, f)$ be an irreducible non-trivial K\"{a}hler gradient Ricci soliton of real dimension $2n$. We show that its group of isometries is of dimension at most $n^2$ and the case of equality is characterized. As a consequence, our…

The Ricci tensor (Ric) is fundamental to Einstein's geometric theory of gravitation. The 3-dimensional Ric of a spacelike surface vanishes at the moment of time symmetry for vacuum spacetimes. The 4-dimensional Ric is the Einstein tensor…

In this paper, we prove some rigidity results for both shrinking and expanding Ricci solitons. First, we prove that compact shrinking Ricci solitons are Einstein if we control the maximum value of the potential function. Then, we prove some…

We show that Lorentzian manifolds whose isometry group is of dimension at least $\frac{1}{2}n(n-1)+1$ are expanding, steady and shrinking Ricci solitons and steady gradient Ricci solitons. This provides examples of complete locally…

English translation of "Solitony Ricciego" (Wiadomo\'sci Matematyczne 48, 2012, no. 1, pp. 1-32). Despite the general-sounding title, the text covers just a few narrow topics: Perelman's proof of the fact that compact Ricci solitons are of…

In stark contrast to lower dimensions, we produce a plethora of ancient and immortal Ricci flows in real dimension $4$ with Einstein orbifolds as tangent flows at infinity. For instance, for any $k\in\mathbb{N}_0$, we obtain continuous…

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…
