چکیده
Einstein manifolds are trivial examples of gradient Ricci solitons with constant potential function and thus they are called trivial Ricci solitons. In this paper, we prove two characterizations of compact shrinking trivial Ricci solitons. M.S.C. 2010: 53C25.

A Characterization of Noncompact Koiso-type Solitons
We construct complete gradient Kähler–Ricci solitons of various types on the total spaces of certain holomorphic line bundles over compact Kähler–Einstein manifolds with positive scalar curvature. Those are noncompact analogues of the compact examples found by Koiso [On rotationally symmetric Hamilton’s equations for Kähler–Einstein metrics, in Recent Topics in Differential and Analytic Geometr...
متن کاملOn 4-dimensional Gradient Shrinking Solitons
In this paper we classify the four dimensional gradient shrinking solitons under certain curvature conditions satisfied by all solitons arising from finite time singularities of Ricci flow on compact four manifolds with positive isotropic curvature. As a corollary we generalize a result of Perelman on three dimensional gradient shrinking solitons to dimension four.

In this paper, we classify the four-dimensional gradient shrinking solitons under certain curvature conditions satisfied by all solitons arising from finite-time singularities of Ricci flow on compact four-manifolds with positive isotropic curvature. As a corollary, we generalize a result of Perelman on three-dimensional gradient shrinking solitons to dimension four.
متن کاملSharp Logarithmic Sobolev Inequalities on Gradient Solitons and Applications
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, these reference measures satisfy sharp logarithmic Sobolev inequalities with lower bounds characterized by the geometry of the manifold. The geometric invari...
متن کاملGeometry of Complete Gradient Shrinking Ricci Solitons
The notion of Ricci solitons was introduced by Hamilton [24] in mid 1980s. They are natural generalizations of Einstein metrics. Ricci solitons also correspond to self-similar solutions of Hamilton’s Ricci flow [22], and often arise as limits of dilations of singularities in the Ricci flow. In this paper, we will focus our attention on complete gradient shrinking Ricci solitons and survey some ...
