In the paper we discuss gap phenomena of three different types related to Ricci (and sectional) curvature. The first type is about spectral gaps. The second type is about sharp gap metric-rigidity, originally due to Anderson. The third is…

The Eisenhart problem of finding parallel tensors treated already in the framework of quasi-constant curvature manifolds in \cite{x:j} is reconsidered for the symmetric case and the result is interpreted in terms of Ricci solitons. If the…
