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.
