In this work, we study metrics which are both homogeneous and Ricci soliton. If there exists a transitive solvable group of isometries on a Ricci soliton, we show that it is isometric to a solvsoliton. Moreover, unless the manifold is flat,…

In the framework of the study of homogeneous Lorentzian three-manifolds, we consider here the only class of examples which admit a four-dimensional group of isometries but are neither Lorentzian Bianchi-Cartan-Vranceanu spaces nor plane…

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 this paper we take a look at conditions that make a Riemann soliton trivial, compacity being one of them. We also show that the behaviour at infinity of the gradient field of a non-compact gradient Riemann soliton might cause the soliton…

In this announcement, we exhibit the second variation of Perelman's $\lambda$ and $\nu$ functionals for the Ricci flow, and investigate the linear stability of examples. We also define the "central density" of a shrinking Ricci soliton and…

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…

In the paper, we analysis the asymptotic behavior of noncompact $\kappa$-noncollapsed steady gradient Ricci soliton $(M, g)$ with nonnegative curvature operator away from a compact set $K$ of $M$. In particular, we prove: any $4d$…

In this paper, we investigate the nature of Einstein solitons, whether it is steady, shrinking or expanding on almost $\alpha$-cosymplectic $3$-manifolds. We also prove that a simply connected homogeneous almost $\alpha$-cosymplectic…

We study three-dimensional generalized Ricci solitons, both in Riemannian and Lorentzian settings. We shall determine their homogeneous models, classifying left-invariant generalized Ricci solitons on three-dimensional Lie groups.

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…

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,…
