Local gradient estimates for eigenfunctions on conformal solitons improve Liouville theorems.

In this paper, we classify n-dimensional (n>2) complete noncompact locally conformally flat gradient steady solitons. In particular, we prove that a complete noncompact non-flat conformally flat gradient steady Ricci soliton is, up to scaling, the Bryant soliton.

In this paper we extend some well-known rigidity results for conformal changes of Einstein metrics to the class of generalized quasi-Einstein (GQE) metrics, which includes gradient Ricci solitons. In order to do so, we introduce the notions of conformal diffeomorphisms and vector fields that preserve a GQE structure. W…

The local structure of half conformally flat gradient Ricci almost solitons is investigated, showing that they are locally conformally flat in a neighborhood of any point where the gradient of the potential function is non-null. In opposition, if the gradient of the potential function is null, then the soliton is a ste…

We construct examples of Bach-flat gradient Ricci solitons which are neither half conformally flat nor conformally Einstein.

Study on Yamabe solitons with applications and structure elucidation.

It is shown that locally conformally flat Lorentzian gradient Ricci solitons are locally isometric to a Robertson-Walker warped product, if the gradient of the potential function is non null, and to a plane wave, if the gradient of the potential function is null. The latter gradient Ricci solitons are necessarily stead…

The study classifies gradient Ricci solitons with specific vector fields.

In this paper we show that all conformal metrics to a pseudo-euclidean space invariant under the translation group, and all the conformal metrics product manifold also invariant by translation where F m it is Ricci flat semi-Riemannian manifold, are gradient Ricci almost soliton. We also proved that all conformal metri…

This paper concerns local gradient estimates to solutions of general conformally invariant fully nonlinear elliptic equations of second order.

In this paper, we first apply an integral identity on Ricci solitons to prove that closed locally conformally flat gradient Ricci solitons are of constant sectional curvature. We then generalize this integral identity to complete noncompact gradient shrinking Ricci solitons, under the conditions that the Ricci curvatur…

In this note we prove that any four-dimensional half conformally flat gradient steady Ricci soliton must be either Bryant's soliton or Ricci flat. We also classify four-dimensional half conformally flat gradient shrinking Ricci solitons with bounded curvature.

LoBoost improves local conformal prediction for gradient-boosted trees without extra data splits.

In this paper we prove that any complete conformal gradient soliton with nonnegative Ricci tensor is either isometric to a direct product $\mathbb{R}\times N^{n-1}$, or globally conformally equivalent to the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ or to the round sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n}$. In particular, we show that any comple…

The paper explores $*$-conformal $η$-Ricci solitons in Kenmotsu manifolds.

We provide the classification of locally conformally flat gradient Yamabe solitons with positive sectional curvature. We first show that locally conformally flat gradient Yamabe solitons with positive sectional curvature have to be rotationally symmetric and then give the classification and asymptotic behavior of all r…

Let $(M^n,g)$ be an $n$-dimensional compact connected Riemannian manifold with smooth boundary. We show that the presence of a nontrivial conformal gradient vector field on $M$, with an appropriate control on the Ricci curvature makes $M$ to be isometric to a hemisphere of $\mathbb{S}^{n}$. We also prove that if an Ein…

We consider generalized gradients in the general context of $G$-structures. They are natural first order differential operators acting on sections of vector bundles associated to irreducible $G$-representations. We study their geometric properties and show in particular their conformal invariance.

In this paper we introduce, in the Riemannian setting, the notion of conformal Ricci soliton, which includes as particular cases Einstein manifolds, conformal Einstein manifolds and (generic and gradient) Ricci solitons. We provide here some necessary integrability conditions for the existence of these structures that …

A vector field s on a Riemannian manifold M is said to be harmonic if there exists a member of a 2-parameter family of generalised Cheeger-Gromoll metrics on TM with respect to which s is a harmonic section. If M is a simply-connected non-flat space form other than the 2-sphere, examples are obtained of conformal vecto…

In this paper we prove that any complete locally conformally flat quasi-Einstein manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$ is locally a warped product with $(n-1)$-dimensional fibers of constant curvature. This result includes also the case of locally conformally flat gradient Ricci solitons.

Conformer encoder reverses sequence in time dimension, affecting decoder training.

In this note we study conformal Ricci flow introduced by Arthur Fischer. We use DeTurck's trick to rewrite conformal Ricci flow as a strong parabolic-elliptic partial differential equations. Then we prove short time existences for conformal Ricci flow on compact manifolds as well as on asymptotically flat manifolds. We…

We show that the Dirac operator on a spin manifold does not admit $L^2$ eigenspinors provided the metric has a certain asymptotic behaviour and is a warped product near infinity. These conditions on the metric are fulfilled in particular if the manifold is complete and carries a non-complete vector field which outside …

We show that any locally conformally flat ancient solution to the Ricci flow must be rotationally symmetric. As a by-product, we prove that any locally conformally flat Ricci soliton is a gradient soliton in the shrinking and steady cases as well as in the expanding case, provided the soliton has nonnegative curvature.

We prove that a nontrivial complete generalized quasi Yamabe gradient soliton (M; g) must be a quasi Yamabe gradient soliton on each connected component of M and that a nontrivial complete locally conformally at generalized quasi Yamabe gradient soliton has a special warped product structure.

We show that every complete nontrivial gradient Yamabe soliton admits a special global warped product structure with a one-dimensional base. Based on this, we prove a general classification theorem for complete nontrivial locally conformally flat gradient Yamabe solitons.

We investigate Kähler metrics conformal to gradient Ricci solitons, and base metrics of warped product gradient Ricci solitons. The latter we name quasi-solitons. A main assumption that is employed is functional dependence of the soliton potential, with the conformal factor in the first case, and with the warping funct…

Conformally variational Riemannian invariants (CVIs), such as the scalar curvature, are homogeneous scalar invariants which arise as the gradient of a Riemannian functional. We establish a wide range of stability and rigidity results involving CVIs, generalizing many such results for the scalar curvature.

ECI improves time series prediction uncertainty quantification by smoothing miscoverage error.

We describe the local structure of self-dual gradient Ricci solitons in neutral signature. If the Ricci soliton is non-isotropic then it is locally conformally flat and locally isometric to a warped product of the form $I\times_\varphi N(c)$, where $N(c)$ is a space of constant curvature. If the Ricci soliton is isotro…

The paper characterizes Kenmotsu manifolds with conformal η-Ricci solitons.

In this paper we study Inverse Mean Curvature Flow (IMCF) on manifolds that are conformal to a warped product manifold. To this end, we show how the gradient conformal vector field in warped product manifolds is related to the conformal vector field on the conformal metric and use this to gain control of the flow in or…

We study pseudo-Riemannian Einstein manifolds which are conformally equivalent with a metric product of two pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. Particularly interesting is the case where one of these manifolds is 1-dimensional and the case where the conformal factor depends on both manifolds simultaneously. If both factors ar…
