In this note we prove that a (anti-)self dual quasi Yamabe soliton with positive sectional curvature is rotationally symmetric. This generalizes a recent result of G. Huang and H. Li in dimension four. Whence, (anti-) self dual gradient…

Suppose $(M^n, g, f)$ is a complete shrinking gradient Ricci soliton. We give several rigidity results under some natural conditions, generalizing the results in \cite{Petersen-Wylie,Guan-Lu-Xu}. Using maximum principle, we prove that…

Let $(M,g,f)$ be a 3-dimensional complete steady gradient Ricci soliton. Assume that $M$ is rectifiable, that is, the potential function can be written as $f=f(r)$, where $r$ is a distance function. Then, we prove that $M$ is isometric to…

We describe three-dimensional Lorentzian homogeneous Ricci solitons, showing that all types (i.e. shrinking, expanding and steady) exist. Moreover, all non-trivial examples have non-diagonalizable Ricci operator with one only eigenvalue.

In this paper we study potential function of gradient steady Ricci solitons. We prove that infimum of potential function decays linearly; in particular, potential function of rectifiable gradient steady Ricci solitons decays linearly. As a…

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…
