The object of the present paper is to study $\beta$-almost Yamabe solitons and $\beta$-almost Ricci solitons on almost co-K\"{a}hler manifolds. In this paper, we prove that if an almost co-K\"{a}hler manifold $M$ with the Reeb vector field…

A gradient Ricci soliton is a triple $(M,g,f)$ satisfying $R_{ij}+\nabla_i\nabla_j f=\lambda g_{ij}$ for some real number $\lambda$. In this paper, we will show that the completeness of the metric $g$ implies that of the vector field…
