In this paper, we study the complete gradient Ricci solitons $(M^n, g,f)$ with zero radial Weyl curvature, which means that the interior product of $\nabla f$ with the Weyl tensor $W$ is zero, i.e., $i_{\nabla f}W=0$. We classify completely…

According to folklore in general relativity, the Weyl tensor can be decomposed into parts corresponding to Newton-like, incoming and outgoing wavelike field components. It is shown here that this one-to-one correspondence does not hold for…

We introduce a class of overdetermined systems of partial differential equations of finite type on (pseudo)-Riemannian manifolds that we call the generalised Ricci soliton equations. These equations depend on three real parameters. For…

A conformal Lie group is a conformal manifold $(M,c)$ such that $M$ has a Lie group structure and $c$ is the conformal structure defined by a left-invariant metric $g$ on $M$. We study Weyl-Einstein structures on conformal solvable Lie…

We introduce a new family of operators in 4-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian manifolds with a non-vanishing Weyl scalar (non-degenerate spaces) that keep the conformal covariance of \emph{conformally covariant tensor concomitants}. A…

In this paper, we classify n-dimensional (n>3) complete Bach-flat gradient shrinking Ricci solitons. More precisely, we prove that any 4-dimensional Bach-flat gradient shrinking Ricci soliton is either Einstein, or locally conformally flat…

The Eisenhart problem of finding parallel tensors is solved for the symmetric case in the regular $f$-Kenmotsu framework. On this way, the Olszack-Rosca example of Einstein manifolds provided by $f$-Kenmotsu manifolds via locally symmetric…

In this paper, we study $n$-dimensional gradient $\rho$-Einstein solitons whose Bach tensor is radially nonnegative. Under this assumption, we show that such $\rho$-Einstein solitons are locally warped products of an interval and an…

We present a covariant study of static space-times, as such and as solutions of gravity theories. By expressing the relevant tensors through the velocity and the acceleration vectors that characterise static space-times, the field equations…

The Bakry-Emery Ricci tensor of a metric-measure space (M,g,e^{-f}dv_{g}) plays an important role in both geometric measure theory and the study of Hamilton's Ricci flow. Under a uniform positivity condition on this tensor and with bounded…

We introduce a new kind of Riemannian manifold that includes weakly-, pseudo- and pseudo projective- Ricci symmetric manifolds. The manifold is defined through a generalization of the so called Z tensor; it is named "weakly Z symmetric" and…

Let $(M, g, f)$ be a $4$-dimensional complete noncompact gradient shrinking Ricci soliton with the equation $Ric+\nabla^2f=\lambda g$, where $\lambda$ is a positive real number. We prove that if $M$ has constant scalar curvature…

Let $(M, g, \omega, f, \lambda)$ be a K\"{a}hler gradient Ricci soliton in real dimension four. One first observes that it is an integrable Hamiltonian system in a classical sense. Indeed, all known complete examples are toric and the…

Motivated by the long-time behavior of Ricci flows that collapse with bounded curvature, we study expanding Ricci solitons with nilpotent symmetry on vector bundles over a closed manifold. We prove that, under mild assumptions that are…

We investigate the spinor classification of the Weyl tensor in five dimensions due to De Smet. We show that a previously overlooked reality condition reduces the number of possible types in the classification. We classify all vacuum…

We investigate compact Kahler manifolds, which are acted on by a semisimple compact Lie group G of isometries with one hypersurface orbit. In case of ordinary action and projectable complex structure, we set up a one to one correspondence…
