In our previous work [PSSW], we showed that the Ricci flow on S^2 whose initial metric has conical singularities \sum_{j=1}^k \beta_j[p_j] converges to a constant curvature metric with conic singularities (in the stable and semi-stable…

Geometrical aspects of a perfect fluid spacetime are described in terms of different curvature tensors and $\eta$-Ricci and $\eta$-Einstein solitons in a perfect fluid spacetime are determined. Conditions for the Ricci soliton to be steady,…

We first show that a K\"ahler cone appears as the tangent cone of a complete expanding gradient K\"ahler-Ricci soliton with quadratic curvature decay with derivatives if and only if it has a smooth canonical model (on which the soliton…

In this article we have showed that a gradient $\rho$-Einstein soliton with a vector field of bounded norm and satisfying some other conditions is isometric to the Euclidean sphere. Later, we have proved that a non-trivial complete gradient…

We study solutions to generalized Ricci flow on four-manifolds with a nilpotent, codimension $1$ symmetry. We show that all such flows are immortal, and satisfy type III curvature and diameter estimates. Using a new kind of monotone energy…

We prove that a complete solution to the Ricci flow on $M\times [-T, 0)$ which has quadratic curvature decay on some end of $M$ and converges locally smoothly to the end of a cone on that neighborhood as $t\nearrow 0$ must be a gradient…

This note is a continuation of the author's paper \cite{Li}. We prove that if the metric $g$ of a 4-manifold has bounded Ricci curvature and the curvature has no local concentration everywhere, then it can be smoothed to a metric with…

We demonstrate that any four-dimensional shrinking Ricci soliton $(\mathcal B \times {\mathbb S^2}, g)$, where $\mathcal B$ is any two-dimensional complete noncompact surface and $g$ is a warped product metric over the base $\mathcal B$,…

This concise review aims to provide a summary of the most relevant recent experimental and theoretical results for solitons, i.e., self-trapped bound states of nonlinear waves, in two- and three-dimensional (2D and 3D) media. In comparison…

In [Cheeger-Tian 2005], Cheeger-Tian proved an $\epsilon$-regularity theorem for $4$-dimensional Einstein manifolds without volume assumption. They conjectured that similar results should hold for critical metrics with constant scalar…

In this paper, we show that steady or shrinking complete gradient Yamabe solitons with finite total scalar curvature and non-positive Ricci curvature are Ricci flat. Moreover, under certain pinching condition for Ricci curvature, we show…

We discuss some geometric conditions under which a complete noncompact shrinking gradient Ricci soliton will split at infinity.

This article offers a comprehensive survey of results obtained for solitons and complex nonlinear wave patterns supported by purely nonlinear lattices (NLs), which represent a spatially periodic modulation of the local strength and sign of…

In this paper we study the evolution of almost non-negatively curved (possibly singular) three dimensional metric spaces by Ricci flow. The non-negatively curved metric spaces which we consider arise as limits of smooth Riemannian manifolds…

We consider a modified Ricci flow equation whose stationary solutions include Einstein and Ricci soliton metrics, and we study the linear stability of those solutions relative to the flow. After deriving various criteria that imply linear…

We study $3$-dimensional Ricci solitons which project via a semi-conformal mapping to a surface. We reformulate the equations in terms of parameters of the map; this enables us to give an ansatz for constructing solitons in terms of data on…

We show that any locally conformally flat ancient solution to the Ricci flow must be rotationally symmetric. As a by-product, we prove that any locally conformally flat Ricci soliton is a gradient soliton in the shrinking and steady cases…

In this work, we discuss the stability of the pluriclosed flow and generalized Ricci flow. We proved that if the second variation of generalized Einstein--Hilbert functional is nonpositive and the infinitesimal deformations are integrable,…

In this article, we investigate global norm of potential vector field in Ricci soliton. In particular, we have deduced certain conditions so that the potential vector field has finite global norm in expanding Ricci soliton. We have also…
