We prove the existence of a unique complete shrinking gradient K\"ahler-Ricci soliton with bounded scalar curvature on the blowup of $\mathbb{C}\times\mathbb{P}^{1}$ at one point. This completes the classification of such solitons in two…
In this paper, we extend the work of Cao-Chen [9] on Bach-flat gradient Ricci solitons to classify $n$-dimensional ($n\ge 5$) complete $D$-flat gradient steady Ricci solitons. More precisely, we prove that any $n$-dimensional complete…
In this paper, we prove some rigidity theorems for shrinking gradient Ricci solitons with nonnegative sectional curvature.
We give a new proof for the existence of rotationally symmetric steady and expanding gradient Ricci solitons in dimension $n+1$, $2\le n\le 4$, with metric $g=\frac{da^2}{h(a^2)}+a^2d\,\sigma$ for some function $h$ where $d\sigma$ is the…
In this paper we show that a complete Schouten soliton whose Ricci tensor has at most two eigenvalues at each point is rigid. This allows the classification of both shrinking and expanding Bach-flat Schouten solitons for $n\geq$ 4. When…
Let $(M^n, g, f)$, $n\geq 5$, be a complete gradient expanding Ricci soliton with nonnegative Ricci curvature $Rc\geq 0$. In this paper, we show that if the asymptotic scalar curvature ratio of $(M^n, g, f)$ is finite (i.e., $ \limsup_{r\to…
The goal of this paper is to investigate the rigidity of 4-dimensional manifolds involving some pinching curvature conditions. To this end, we make use of the approach of biorthogonal curvature which is weaker than the sectional curvature.…
Let $(Y,d)$ be a Gromov-Hausdorff limit of closed shrinking Ricci solitons with uniformly upper bounded diameter and lower bounded volume. We prove that off a closed subset of codimension at least 2, $Y$ is a smooth manifold satisfying a…
We show that, up to biholomorphism, there is at most one complete $T^n$-invariant shrinking gradient K\"ahler-Ricci soliton on a non-compact toric manifold $M$. We also establish uniqueness without assuming $T^n$-invariance if the Ricci…
In this article we have showed that a gradient $\rho$-Einstein soliton with a vector field of bounded norm and satisfying some other conditions is isometric to the Euclidean sphere. Later, we have proved that a non-trivial complete gradient…
It is shown that the diameter of a compact shrinking Ricci soliton has a universal lower bound. This is proved by extending universal estimates for the first non-zero eigenvalue of Laplacian on compact Riemannian manifolds with lower Ricci…
We consider noncollapsed steady gradient Ricci solitons with nonnegative sectional curvature. We show that such solitons always dimension reduce at infinity. This generalizes an earlier result in [CDM22] to higher dimensions. In dimension…
We develop a new degree theory for 4-dimensional, asymptotically conical gradient expanding solitons. Our theory implies the existence of gradient expanding solitons that are asymptotic to any given cone over $S^3$ with non-negative scalar…
In the paper, we analysis the asymptotic behavior of noncompact $\kappa$-noncollapsed steady gradient Ricci soliton $(M, g)$ with nonnegative curvature operator away from a compact set $K$ of $M$. In particular, we prove: any $4d$…
In this paper, we study certain compact 4-manifolds with non-negative sectional curvature $K$. If $s$ is the scalar curvature and $W_+$ is the self-dual part of Weyl tensor, then it will be shown that there is no metric $g$ on $S^2 \times…
We use the theory of isoparametric functions to investigate gradient Ricci solitons with constant scalar curvature. We show rigidity of gradient Ricci solitons with constant scalar curvature under some conditions on the Ricci tensor, which…
In this paper we first use the result in $[12]$ to remove the assumption of the $L^2$ boundedness of Weyl curvature in the gap theorem in $[9]$ and then obtain a gap theorem for a class of conformally compact Einstein manifolds with very…
We prove that all ends of a gradient shrinking $\rho$-Einstein soliton are $\varphi$-non-parabolic, provided $\rho$ is nonnegative and the soliton has bounded and nonnegative scalar curvature, where the weight $\varphi$ is a negative…
For all dimensions $n\geq5$, let $(M,g,f)$ be a $n-$dimensional shrinking gradient Ricci soliton with strictly positive isotropic curvature (PIC). Suppose furthermore that $\nabla^2f$ is $2-$nonnegative and the curvature tensor is WPIC1 at…
In this paper, we show that any nontrivial complete shrinking gradient Yamabe soliton whose scalar curvature is bounded below by the soliton constant everywhere and is strictly greater than the constant at some point is rotationally…
