Consider the standard action of $SO(2)\times SO(3)$ on $\mathbb{R}^5=\mathbb{R}^2\oplus \mathbb{R}^3$. We establish the existence of a uniform constant $\mathcal{C}>0$ so that any $SO(2)\times SO(3)$-invariant Ricci soliton on…
We describe three-dimensional Lorentzian homogeneous Ricci solitons, showing that all types (i.e. shrinking, expanding and steady) exist. Moreover, all non-trivial examples have non-diagonalizable Ricci operator with one only eigenvalue.
For any 3D steady gradient Ricci soliton with positive curvature, we prove that it must be isometric to the Bryant soliton if it is asymptotic to a ray. Otherwise, it is asymptotic to a sector and hence a flying wing. We show that all 3D…
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 $\rho(x)$…
Using center manifolds and topological degree theory, we construct a new family of complete, $SU(2)$-invariant and steady gradient Ricci solitons on the four-dimensional non-compact cohomogeneity one manifold with group diagram…
We prove that the Ricci flow g(t) starting at any metric on the euclidean space that is invariant by a transitive nilpotent Lie group N, can be obtained by solving an ODE for a curve of nilpotent Lie brackets. By using that this ODE is the…
We study three-dimensional generalized Ricci solitons, both in Riemannian and Lorentzian settings. We shall determine their homogeneous models, classifying left-invariant generalized Ricci solitons on three-dimensional Lie groups.
As a step toward understanding the analytic behavior of Type-III Ricci flow singularities, i.e. immortal solutions that exhibit |Rm|<C/t curvature decay, we examine the linearization of an equivalent flow at fixed points discovered recently…
We find a family of 3d steady gradient Ricci solitons that are flying wings. This verifies a conjecture by Hamilton. For a 3d flying wing, we show that the scalar curvature does not vanish at infinity. The 3d flying wings are collapsed. For…
We show that a three-dimensional steady gradient Ricci soliton which is asymptotic to the Bryant soliton in a suitable sense must be isometric to the Bryant soliton.
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…
We construct a family of non-collapsed, non-K\"ahler, non-Einstein steady Ricci solitons in even dimensions greater or equal to four. These solitons exist on complex line bundles over K\"ahler-Einstein manifolds of positive scalar…
We introduce certain spherically symmetric singular Ricci solitons and study their stability under the Ricci flow from a dynamical PDE point of view. The solitons in question exist for all dimensions $n+1\ge 3$, and all have a point…
We show the existence and uniqueness of a one-parameter family of smooth complete $U(1)$-invariant gradient steady Ricci solitons on the total space of any complex line bundle over a Fano K\"ahler-Einstein base with first Chern class…
We construct a continuous 3-parameter family of non-shrinking Ricci solitons complex line bundles $O(k)$ over $\mathbb{CP}^{2m+1}$, where the base space is not necessarily K\"ahler--Einstein. Each $O(k)$ with $k\in [3,2m+1]$ admits at least…
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)…
A Ricci soliton is a natural generalization of an Einstein metric. On a pseudo-Riemannian manifold (M, g), it is defined by : $LX g + \r{ho} = {\lambda} g, where X is a smooth vector field on M , LX denotes the Lie derivative in the…
In this paper we consider $4$-dimensional steady soliton singularity models, i.e., complete steady gradient Ricci solitons that arise as the rescaled limit of a finite time singular solution of the Ricci flow on a closed $4$-manifold. In…
For any $n\geq 4$, we construct an $(n-2)$-parameter family of steady gradient Ricci solitons with non-negative curvature operator and prescribed by the eigenvalues of Ricci tensor at a critical point of the soliton potential. Among them…
We prove that there exists a gradient expanding Ricci soliton asymptotic to any given cone over the product of a round sphere and a Ricci flat manifold. In particular we obtain asymptotically conical expanding Ricci solitons with positive…
