Suppose $(M, g, f)$ is a 5-dimensional complete shrinking gradient Ricci soliton with $R=1$. If it has bounded curvature, we prove that it is a finite quotient of $\mathbb{R}^3\times \mathbb{S}^2$.

We use the theory of isoparametric functions to investigate gradient Ricci solitons with constant scalar curvature. We show rigidity of gradient Ricci solitons with constant scalar curvature under some conditions on the Ricci tensor, which…

In this very short note we prove a lower bound for the scalar curvature of certain steady gradient Ricci solitons.

The main purpose of this paper is to show that a normalized non-steady gradient Ricci soliton (M,g,f,{\lambda}) of dimension n is trivial if and only if its scalar curvature S satisfies the equality S={\lambda}(f+(n/2)).
