Let $(M,g,f)$ be a 3-dimensional complete steady gradient Ricci soliton. Assume that $M$ is rectifiable, that is, the potential function can be written as $f=f(r)$, where $r$ is a distance function. Then, we prove that $M$ is isometric to…

There is a conjecture that a complete Riemannian 3-manifold with bounded sectional curvature, and pointwise pinched nonnegative Ricci curvature, must be flat or compact. We show that this is true when the negative part (if any) of the…

Applying a well known result for attracting fixed points of biholomorphisms \cite{RR, V}, we observe that one immediately obtains the following result: if $(M^n,g)$ is a complete non-compact gradient K\"ahler-Ricci soliton which is either…
We show that a four-dimensional complete gradient shrinking Ricci soliton with positive isotropic curvature is either a quotient of S^4 or a quotient of S^3 cross R. This gives a clean classification result removing the earlier additional…
