In this paper, we study several properties of Sasaki-Ricci solitons as singularity models of the Sasaki-Ricci flow. First, we establish several fundamental equations for Sasaki-Ricci solitons, which enable us to derive potential estimates…

We show that the Einstein-Hilbert functional, as a functional on the space of Reeb vector fields, detects the vanishing Sasaki-Futaki invariant. In particular, this provides an obstruction to the existence of a constant scalar curvature…

The works of Commichau--Grauert and Hirschowitz showed that a formal equivalence between embeddings of a compact complex manifold is convergent, if the embeddings have sufficiently positive normal bundles in a suitable sense. We show that…

We introduce two new functionals on Sasaki manifolds, inspired by the work of Perelman, which are monotonic along the Sasaki-Ricci flow. We relate their gradient flow, via diffeomorphisms preserving the foliated structure of the manifold,…

The purpose of this paper is to study reducibility properties in Sasakian geometry. First we give the Sasaki version of the de Rham Decomposition Theorem; however, we need a mild technical assumption on the Sasaki automorphism group which…

Given a Sasaki manifold S, we prove the Sasaki-Ricci flow converges exponentially fast to a Sasaki-Einstein metric if one exists, provided the automorphism group of the transverse holomorphic structure is trivial.
