We prove that a four-dimensional gradient shrinking Ricci soliton with $\delta W^{\pm}=0$ is either Einstein, or a finite quotient of $S^3\times\mathbb{R}$, $S^2\times\mathbb{R}^2$ or $\mathbb{R}^4$. We also prove that a four-dimensional…

In this paper, we study conformal Ricci solitons and conformal gradient Ricci solitons on generalized ($\kappa,\mu$)-space forms. The conditions for the solitons to be shrinking, steady, and expanding are derived in terms of conformal…

We study metric structures on a smooth manifold (introduced in our recent works and called a weak contact metric structure and a weak K-structure) which generalize the metric contact and K-contact structures, and allow a new look at the…

A Ricci soliton is a natural generalization of an Einstein metric. On a pseudo-Riemannian manifold (M, g), it is defined by : $LX g + \r{ho} = {\lambda} g, where X is a smooth vector field on M , LX denotes the Lie derivative in the…

On a (pseudo-) Riemannian manifold of dimension n > 2, the space of tensors which transform covariantly under Weyl rescalings of the metric is built. This construction is related to a Weyl-covariant operator D whose commutator [D,D] gives…

We show that every gradient shrinking soliton of the generalized Ricci flow on compact manifold is a Ricci soliton. And we prove that the pluriclosed soliton is gradient Kahler-Ricci soliton under a broad cohomological condition. Moreover,…

Among other results, a compact almost K\"ahler manifold is proved to be K\"ahler if the Ricci tensor is semi-negative and its length coincides with that of the star Ricci tensor or if the Ricci tensor is semi-positive and its first order…
