We analyse some properties of the cohomogeneity one Ricci soliton equations, and use Ansatze of cohomogeneity one type to produce new explicit examples of complete Kahler Ricci solitons of expanding, steady and shrinking types. These…
The main purpose of the paper is to prove that if a compact Riemannian manifold admits a gradient $\rho$-Einstein soliton such that the gradient Einstein potential is a non-trivial conformal vector field, then the manifold is isometric to…

We construct an expanding gradient Ricci soliton in dimension three over the topological manifold R x T^2 (the product of a line and a torus) that aproaches asymptotically a constant curvature cusp at one end, and a flat manifold on the…
We construct gradient K\"ahler-Ricci solitons on Ricci-flat K\"ahler cone manifolds and on line bundles over toric Fano manifolds. Certain shrinking and expanding solitons are pasted together to form eternal solutions of the Ricci flow. The…
We study three-dimensional generalized Ricci solitons, both in Riemannian and Lorentzian settings. We shall determine their homogeneous models, classifying left-invariant generalized Ricci solitons on three-dimensional Lie groups.
Let $M$ be a real hypersurface of a complex space form $M^n(c)$, $c\neq 0$. Suppose that the structure vector field $\xi$ of $M$ is an eigen vector field of the Ricci tensor $S$, $S\xi=\beta\xi$, $\beta$ being a function. We study on $M$, a…
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…
The aim of this paper is to study geometrical aspects of static spacetime admitting an almost gradient Ricci soliton. Among others, We first determine the conditions under which the base manifold of static spacetime possess an almost…
We establish variational formulas for Ricci upper and lower bounds, as well as a derivative formula for the Ricci curvature. As applications, constant curvature manifolds, Einstein manifolds and Ricci parallel manifolds are identified,…
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…
It is known that all left-invariant pseudo-Riemannian metrics on $H_3$ are algebraic Ricci solitons. We consider generalizations of Riemannian $H$-type, namely pseudo$H$-type and $pH$-type. We study algebraic Ricci solitons of…
We study almost Riemann solitons and almost Ricci solitons in an $(\alpha,\beta)$-contact metric manifold satisfying some Ricci symmetry conditions, treating the case when the potential vector field of the soliton is pointwise collinear…
In this paper, we consider gradient estimates for two type of nonlinear parabolic equations under the Ricci flow: one is the equation $$u_t=\Delta u+au\log u+bu$$ with $a,b$ two real constants, the other is $$u_t=\Delta u+\lambda…
We present the necessary and sufficient conditions for constructing gradient Ricci almost solitons that are realized as warped products. This will be done by means of Bishop-O'Neill's formulas and a particular study of Riemannian manifolds…
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…
