On Locally Conformally Flat Gradient Steady Ricci Solitons
In this paper, we prove that a complete noncompact non-flat conformally flat gradient steady Ricci soliton is, up to scaling, the Bryant soliton. 1. The result A complete Riemannian metric gij on a smooth manifold M n is called a gradient steady Ricci soliton if there exists a smooth function F on M such that the Ricci tensor Rij of the metric gij is given by the Hessian of F : Rij = ∇i∇jF. (1....
متن کاملRicci Solitons in Lorentzian Α-sasakian Manifolds
We study Ricci solitons in Lorentzian α-Sasakian manifolds. It is shown that a symmetric parallel second order covariant tensor in a Lorentzian α-Sasakian manifold is a constant multiple of the metric tensor. Using this it is shown that if LV g + 2S is parallel, V is a given vector field then (g, V ) is Ricci soliton. Further, by virtue of this result Ricci solitons for (2n + 1)-dimensional Lor...
متن کاملGradient Kähler Ricci Solitons
Some observations about the local and global generality of gradient Kähler Ricci solitons are made, including the existence of a canonically associated holomorphic volume form and vector field, the local generality of solutions with a prescribed holomorphic volume form and vector field, and the existence of Poincaré coordinates in the case that the Ricci curvature is positive and the vector fie...
متن کاملConformally Flat Manifolds with Nonnegative Ricci Curvature
We show that complete conformally flat manifolds of dimension n > 3 with nonnegative Ricci curvature enjoy nice rigidity properties: they are either flat, or locally isometric to a product of a sphere and a line, or are globally conformally equivalent to R n or a spherical spaceform Sn/Γ. This extends previous results due to Q.-M. Cheng and B.-L. Chen and X.-P. Zhu. In this note, we study compl...
متن کاملRigidity of Gradient Ricci Solitons
We define a gradient Ricci soliton to be rigid if it is a flat bundle N×ΓR k where N is Einstein. It is known that not all gradient solitons are rigid. Here we offer several natural conditions on the curvature that characterize rigid gradient solitons. Other related results on rigidity of Ricci solitons are also explained in the last section.
