We study the non Ricci flat gradient steady K\"{a}hler Ricci soliton with non-negative Ricci curvature and weak integrability condition of the scalar curvature $S$, namely $\underline{\lim}_{r\to \infty} r^{-1}\int_{B_r} S=0$, and show that…

We prove two rigidity theorems for open (complete and noncompact) $n$-manifolds $M$ with nonnegative Ricci curvature and the infimum of volume growth order $<2$. The first theorem asserts that the Riemannian universal cover of $M$ has…

We prove that any gradient shrinking Ricci soliton has at most Euclidean volume growth. This improves a recent result of H.-D. Cao and D. Zhou by removing a condition on the growth of scalar curvature.

We consider Riemannian 4-manifolds that Gromov-Hausdorff converge to a lower dimensional limit space, with the Ricci tensor going to zero. Among other things, we show that if the limit space is two dimensional then under some mild…

In this paper we consider $4$-dimensional steady soliton singularity models, i.e., complete steady gradient Ricci solitons that arise as the rescaled limit of a finite time singular solution of the Ricci flow on a closed $4$-manifold. In…

We prove that a shrinking gradient Ricci soliton which is asymptotic to a K\"ahler cone along some end is itself K\"ahler on some neighborhood of infinity of that end. When the shrinker is complete, it is globally K\"ahler.
