In this paper, we prove that complete gradient steady K\"ahler-Ricci solitons with harmonic Bochner tensor are necessarily K\"ahler-Ricci flat, i.e., Calabi-Yau, and that complete gradient shrinking (or expanding) K\"ahler-Ricci solitons…

We show that a complete Riemannian manifold has finite topological type (i.e., homeomorphic to the interior of a compact manifold with boundary), provided its Bakry-\'{E}mery Ricci tensor has a positive lower bound, and either of the…
