We prove the following results: (i) A Sasakian metric as a non-trivial Ricci soliton is null $\eta$-Einstein, and expanding. Such a characterization permits to identify the Sasakian metric on the Heisenberg group $\mathcal{H}^{2n+1}$ as an…

We study a characterization of 4-dimensional (not necessarily complete) gradient Ricci solitons $(M, g, f)$ which have harmonic Weyl curvature, i.e. $\delta W=0$. Roughly speaking, we prove that the soliton metric $g$ is locally isometric…

We investigate K\"ahler metrics conformal to gradient Ricci solitons, and base metrics of warped product gradient Ricci solitons. The latter we name quasi-solitons. A main assumption that is employed is functional dependence of the soliton…

In this paper we use the $Z-$decomposition as a tool to find locally symmetric left invariant Riemannian metrics on some Lie groups. For this purpose, we need to compute the spectrum of the curvature operator. Since the study of this…

A Riemannian manifold $(M,\rho)$ is called Einstein if the metric $\rho$ satisfies the condition $\Ric (\rho)=c\cdot \rho$ for some constant $c$. This paper is devoted to the investigation of $G$-invariant Einstein metrics with additional…
