We prove that a shrinking gradient Ricci soliton which agrees to infinite order at spatial infinity with one of the standard cylindrical metrics on $S^k\times \RR^{n-k}$ for $k\geq 2$ along some end must be isometric to the cylinder on that…
In this paper, we study gradient Ricci expanding solitons $(X,g)$ satisfying $$ Rc=cg+D^2f, $$ where $Rc$ is the Ricci curvature, $c<0$ is a constant, and $D^2f$ is the Hessian of the potential function $f$ on $X$. We show that for a…
We construct an expanding gradient Ricci soliton in dimension three over the topological manifold R x T^2 (the product of a line and a torus) that aproaches asymptotically a constant curvature cusp at one end, and a flat manifold on the…
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.

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…
Simply-connected four-dimensional gradient Ricci solitons that are invariant under a compact cohomogeneity one group action have been studied extensively. However, the special case where the group is $SU(2)$ (the smallest possible example)…
We prove that a steady gradient Ricci soliton is either Ricci flat with a constant potential function or a quotient of the product steady soliton $N^{n-1}\times\mathbb{R}$, where $N^{n-1}$ is Ricci flat, or isometric to the Bryant soliton…
