[Dedicated to Richard S. Hamilton on forty years of Ricci flow] Gradient Ricci solitons have garnered significant attention both as self-similar solutions and singularity models of the Ricci flow. This survey article starts with a list of…
In this survey paper, we analyse and compare the recent curvature estimates for three types of $4$-dimensional gradient Ricci solitons, especially between Ricci shrinkers [58] and expanders [17]. In addition, we provide some new curvature…
We classify and expose all the gradient Ricci solitons on complete surfaces, open or closed, with curvature bounded below, and possibly with a discrete set of cone-like singular points that arise naturally. We give a precise qualitative…
In this paper we study potential function of gradient steady Ricci solitons. We prove that infimum of potential function decays linearly; in particular, potential function of rectifiable gradient steady Ricci solitons decays linearly. As a…
This is a sequel to our paper [24], in which we investigated the geometry of 4-dimensional gradient shrinking Ricci solitons with half positive (nonnegative) isotropic curvature. In this paper, we mainly focus on 4-dimensional gradient…
In this article we classify expanding homogeneous Ricci solitons up to dimension 5, according to their presentation as homogeneous spaces. We obtain that they are all isometric to solvsolitons, and this in particular implies that the…
In this note, we prove that a 3-dimensional steady Ricci soliton is rotationally symmetric if its scalar curvature $R(x)$ satisfies $$\frac{C_0^{-1}}{\rho(x)}\le R(x)\le \frac{C_0}{\rho(x)}$$ for some constant $C_0>0$, where $\rho(x)$…
In the first part of the paper we derive integral curvature estimates for complete gradient shrinking Ricci solitons. Our results and the recent work of Lopez-Rio imply rigidity of gradient shrinking Ricci solitons with harmonic Weyl…
We study a characterization of 4-dimensional (not necessarily complete) gradient Ricci solitons $(M, g, f)$ which have harmonic Weyl curvature, i.e. $\delta W=0$. Roughly speaking, we prove that the soliton metric $g$ is locally isometric…
We prove the existence of a one-parameter family of pairwise non-isometric, complete, positively curved, steady generalized Ricci solitons of gradient type on $\mathbb{R}^3$ that are invariant under the natural cohomogeneity one action of…
A gradient Ricci soliton is a triple $(M,g,f)$ satisfying $R_{ij}+\nabla_i\nabla_j f=\lambda g_{ij}$ for some real number $\lambda$. In this paper, we will show that the completeness of the metric $g$ implies that of the vector field…
In this note, we prove triviality and nonexistence results for gradient Ricci soliton warped metrics. The proofs stem from the construction of gradient Ricci solitons that are realized as warped products, from which we know that the base…
Let $(M, g, J, f)$ be an irreducible non-trivial K\"{a}hler gradient Ricci soliton of real dimension $2n$. We show that its group of isometries is of dimension at most $n^2$ and the case of equality is characterized. As a consequence, our…
We establish integral curvature estimates for complete gradient shrinking Sasaki-Ricci solitons. As an application, we show that any such soliton with harmonic Weyl tensor must be a finite quotient of a sphere. This result can be regarded…
We prove the existence of a unique complete shrinking gradient K\"ahler-Ricci soliton with bounded scalar curvature on the blowup of $\mathbb{C}\times\mathbb{P}^{1}$ at one point. This completes the classification of such solitons in two…
We study the asymptotic volume ratio of non-steady gradient Ricci solitons. Moreover, a local estimate of the volume ratio is obtained for expanding solitons which satisfy $\lim_{dist(O,x)\rightarrow\infty} |Sect|\cdot dist(O,x)^2=0$.…
We show that a complete Riemannian manifold has finite topological type (i.e., homeomorphic to the interior of a compact manifold with boundary), provided its Bakry-\'{E}mery Ricci tensor has a positive lower bound, and either of the…
Let $M$ be a real hypersurface of a complex space form $M^n(c)$, $c\neq 0$. Suppose that the structure vector field $\xi$ of $M$ is an eigen vector field of the Ricci tensor $S$, $S\xi=\beta\xi$, $\beta$ being a function. We study on $M$, a…
In this note, we show that any $n$-dimensional $\kappa$-noncollapsed steady K\"ahler-Ricci soliton with nonnegative bisectional curvature must be flat. The result is an improvement to our former work in \cite{DZ2}.
The Eisenhart problem of finding parallel tensors treated already in the framework of quasi-constant curvature manifolds in \cite{x:j} is reconsidered for the symmetric case and the result is interpreted in terms of Ricci solitons. If the…
