In this paper, we consider a left-invariant Riemannian metric $g$ on the Lie group $F^4$. We classify Ricci solitons on $(F^4,g)$ and show that all such solitons are expanding and non-gradient. Moreover, we study the existence of harmonic…

We prove that any gradient shrinking Ricci soliton has at most Euclidean volume growth. This improves a recent result of H.-D. Cao and D. Zhou by removing a condition on the growth of scalar curvature.

In this paper we study 4d gradient steady Ricci solitons, which are weak $\kappa$-solutions, and admit O(3)-symmetry. Under a weak curvature decay condition, we find precise geometric asymptotics of such solitons, which are similar to those…
