The main result of this paper is that a Lorentzian manifold is locally conformally equivalent to a manifold with recurrent lightlike vector field and totally isotropic Ricci tensor if and only if its conformal tractor holonomy admits a…
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…
In $1996$, H.-D. Cao constructed a $U(n)$-invariant steady gradient K\"ahler-Ricci soliton on $\mathbb{C}^{n}$ and asked whether every steady gradient K\"ahler-Ricci soliton of positive curvature on $\mathbb{C}^{n}$ is necessarily…
In this note, we show that a nontrivial, compact, degenerate or nondegenerate, gradient Einstein-type manifold of constant scalar curvature is isometric to the standard sphere with a well defined potential function. Moreover, under some…
We show that the underlying complex manifold of a complete non-compact two-\linebreak dimensional shrinking gradient K\"ahler-Ricci soliton $(M,\,g,\,X)$ with soliton metric $g$ with bounded scalar curvature $\operatorname{R}_{g}$ whose…
We prove that if a closed unit volume Riemannian manifold, $(M^n, g)$, has Ricci curvature bounded from below by r>0 then the Yamabe constant of the conformal class of $g$ is at least $n.r$. This inequality has already been proved by S.…
In this paper, I computed the second variation formula of the generalized Einstein-Hilbert functional and prove that a Bismut-flat, Einstein manifold is linearly stable under some curvature assumption. In the last part of the paper, I prove…
Let $(M^3, g, f)$ be a nontrivial 3-dimensional steady gradient Ricci soliton. If the scalar curvature $R$ satisfies $c_1r^{-b}\leq R\leq c_2r^{-a}$ for some $a\in(0,1], b\geq a$, and $c_1,c_2>0$, then the umbilical ratio of the level sets…
In this paper we consider $\rho$-Einstein solitons of type $M= \left(B^n, g^{*}\right) \times (F^m,g_F)$, where $\left(B^n,g^{*}\right)$ is conformal to a pseudo-Euclidean space and invariant under the action of the pseudo-orthogonal group,…
The only known example of collapsed three-dimensional complete gradient steady Ricci solitons so far is the 3D cigar soliton $N^2\times \mathbb{R}$, the product of Hamilton's cigar soliton $N^2$ and the real line $\mathbb{R}$ with the…
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…
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…
We show for a complete noncompact steady Ricci soliton that there exists a sequence {x_i} of points tending to infinity such that |Rc|(x_i) limits to zero.
We classify four-dimensional shrinking Ricci solitons satisfying $Sec \geq \frac{1}{24} R$, where $Sec$ and $R$ denote the sectional and the scalar curvature, respectively. They are isometric to either $\mathbb{R}^{4}$ (and quotients),…
We provide conditions for a compact gradient hyperbolic Ricci and a compact gradient hyperbolic Yamabe soliton to be trivial, hence, the manifold to be an Einstein manifold in the first case, and a manifold of constant scalar curvature, in…
We characterize complete nonnegatively curved steady gradient soliton with curvature in L^1. We show that there are isometric to a product (R^2,g_{cigar}) times(R^{n-2}, eucl))/Gamma where Gamma is a Bieberbach group of rank n-2. We prove…
We show that gradient shrinking, expanding or steady Ricci solitons have potentials leading to suitable reference probability measures on the manifold. For shrinking solitons, as well as expanding soltions with nonnegative Ricci curvature,…
