We classify spin ALE ancient Ricci flows and spin ALE expanding solitons with suitable groups at infinity. In particular, the only spin ancient Ricci flows with groups at infinity in $SU(2)$ and mild decay at infinity are hyperk\"ahler ALE…

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 $4d$…

A result of R. Hamilton asserts that any convex hypersurface in an Euclidian space with pinched second fundamental form must be compact. Partly inspired by this result, twenty years ago, in \cite{Ancient}, Remark 3.1 on page 650, the author…

A noncollapsed $\mathbb{F}$-limit metric soliton is a self-similar singularity model that inevitably arises when studying the Ricci flow with the tool of $\mathbb{F}$-convergence [Bam20a,Bam20b,Bam20c]. In this article, we shall present a…

We prove the following: Let (M,g,X) be a noncompact four dimensional shrinking soliton with bounded nonnegative curvature operator, then (M,g) is isometric to R^4 or a finite quotient of S^2xR^2 or S^3xR. In the process we also show that a…
