AbstractThe aim of this paper is to extend for the m-quasi-Einstein metrics some integral formulae obtained in [1] (C. Aquino, A. Barros and E. Ribeiro Jr., Some applications of the Hodge-de Rham decomposition to Ricci solitons, Results Math. 60 (2011), 245–254) for Ricci solitons and derive similar results achieved there. Moreover, we shall extend the m-Bakry-Emery Ricci tensor for a vector field X on a Riemannian manifold instead of a gradient field ∇f, in order to obtain some results concerning these manifolds that generalize their correspondents to a gradient field.

A Ricci soliton (M, g, v, λ) on a Riemannian manifold (M, g) is said to have concurrent potential field if its potential field v is a concurrent vector field. Ricci solitons arisen from concurrent vector fields on Riemannian manifolds were studied recently in [Ricci solitons and concurrent vector fields, preprint (2014), arXiv:1407.2790]. The most important concurrent vector field is the position vector field on Euclidean submanifolds. In this paper we completely classify Ricci solitons on Euclidean hypersurfaces arisen from the position vector field of the hypersurfaces.

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 Geometry, Advanced Studies in Pure Mathematics, Vol. 18-I (Academic Press, Boston, MA, 1990), pp. 327–337]. Our examples can be viewed a generalization of previous examples by Cao [Existense of gradient Kähler–Ricci solitons, in Elliptic and Parabolic Methods in Geometry (Minneapolis, MN, 1994), pp. 1–16], Chave and Valent [On a class of compact and non-compact quasi-Einstein metrics and their renormalizability properties, Nuclear Phys. B 478 (1996) 758–778], Pedersen, Tønnesen-Friedman, and Valent [Quasi-Einstein Kähler metrics, Lett. Math. Phys. 50(3) (1999) 229–241], and Feldman, Ilmanen and Knopf [Rotationally symmetric shrinking and expanding gradient Kähler–Ricci solitons, J. Differential Geom. 65 (2003) 169–209]. We also prove a uniformization result on complete steady gradient Kähler–Ricci solitons with non-negative Ricci curvature under additional assumptions.

On a sub-Riemannian manifold of contact type a connection  with torsion is considered, called in the work a Ψ-connection. A Ψ- connection is a particular case of an N-connection. On a sub-Riemannian manifold, a Ψ-connection is defined up to an endomorphism  :DD of a distribution D, this endomorphism is called in the work the structure endomorphism. The endomorphism ψ is uniquely defined by the following relations:  0,   (x, y)  g( x, y), x, yD. If the distribution of a sub-Riemannian manifold is integrable, then the Ψ-connection is of the class of the quarter-symmetric connections. It is proved that the Ψ- connection is a metric connection if and only if the structure vector field of the sub-Riemannian structure is integrable. A formula expressing the Ψ-connections in terms of the Levi-Civita connection of the sub- Riemannian manifold is obtained. The components of the curvature tensors and the Ricci-tensors of the Ψ-connection and of the Levi-Civita connection are computed. It is proved that if a sub-Riemannian manifold is an η-Einstein manifold, then it is also an η-Einstein manifold with respect to the Ψ-connection. The converse holds true only under the condition that the trace of the structure endomorphism Ψ is a constant not depending on a point of the manifold. The paper is completed by the theorem stating that a Sasaki manifold is an η-Einstein manifold if and only if M is an η-Einstein manifold with respect to the Ψ-connection.

Abstract We study global obstructions to the eigenvalues of the Ricci tensor on a Riemannian 3-manifold. As a topological obstruction, we first show that if the 3-manifold is closed, then certain choices of the eigenvalues are prohibited: in particular, there is no Riemannian metric whose corresponding Ricci eigenvalues take the form (−μ, f, f), where μ is a positive constant and f is a smooth positive function. We then concentrate on the case when one of the eigenvalues is zero. Here we show that if the manifold is complete and its Ricci eigenvalues take the form (0, λ, λ), where λ is a positive constant, then its universal cover must split isometrically. If the manifold is closed, scalar-flat, and its zero eigenspace contains a unit length vector field that is geodesic and divergence-free, then the manifold must be flat. Our techniques also apply to the study of Ricci solitons in dimension three.

We study the effect of a nontrivial conformal vector field on the geometry of compact Riemannian spaces. We find two new characterizations of the m-dimensional sphere Sm(c) of constant curvature c. The first characterization uses the well known de-Rham Laplace operator, while the second uses a nontrivial solution of the famous Fischer–Marsden differential equation.

Abstract The goal of this article is to provide a construction and classification, in the case of two complex dimensions, of the possible tangent cones at points of limit spaces of non-collapsed sequences of Kähler-Einstein metrics with cone singularities. The proofs and constructions are completely elementary, nevertheless they have an intrinsic beauty. In a few words; tangent cones correspond to spherical metrics with cone singularities in the projective line by means of the Kähler quotient construction with respect to the S1-action generated by the Reeb vector field, except in the irregular case ℂβ₁×ℂβ₂ with β₂/ β₁ ∉ Q.

In the present paper, we introduce a new class of natural metrics on the tangent bundle $TM$ of the Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ denoted by $G^{f,h}$ which is named a twisted Sasakian metric. A necessary and sufficient conditions under which a vector field is harmonic with respect to the twisted Sasakian metric are established. Some examples of harmonic vector fields are presented as well.

Fano Manifold

Let $M$ be a Fano manifold. We call a Kähler metric ${\it\omega}\in c_{1}(M)$ a Kähler–Ricci soliton if it satisfies the equation $\text{Ric}({\it\omega})-{\it\omega}=L_{V}{\it\omega}$ for some holomorphic vector field $V$ on $M$. It is known that a necessary condition for the existence of Kähler–Ricci solitons is the vanishing of the modified Futaki invariant introduced by Tian and Zhu. In a recent work of Berman and Nyström, it was generalized for (possibly singular) Fano varieties, and the notion of algebrogeometric stability of the pair $(M,V)$ was introduced. In this paper, we propose a method of computing the modified Futaki invariant for Fano complete intersections in projective spaces.

Gradient Ricci Solitons

In our very recent published work [Int. J. Geom. Meth. Mod. Phys.8(4) (2011) 783–796], we considered the Riemannian manifold M = ℝ2 endowed with the warped metric ḡ(x, y) = diag (g(y), 1), where g is a positive function, of C∞-class, depending on the variable y only. Within this framework, we found a wide class of 2D gradient Ricci solitons and specialized our results to discuss some case studies. This research is a natural continuation, providing classification results for the subclass of steady gradient Ricci solitons.
