We introduce a natural extension of the concept of gradient Ricci soliton: the Ricci almost soliton. We provide existence and rigidity results, we deduce a-priori curvature estimates and isolation phenomena, and we investigate some…

We construct an example of an asymptotically conical (AC) non-K\"ahler expanding gradient Ricci soliton that has a K\"ahler tangent cone at infinity. This yields an example of a K\"ahler cone that can be desingularised by a smooth AC…

In this paper we study the behavior of the scalar curvature at infinity on complete noncompact steady gradient Ricci solitons. In dimension four, we assume that the canonical Ricci flow induced by the soliton is a weak $\kappa$-solution and…

We prove an existence theorem for Asymptotically Conical Ricci Flat Kahler metrics in $\mathbb{C}^2$ with cone singularities along a smooth complex curve. These metrics are expected to arise as blow up limits of non collapsed sequences of…
