We prove the following: Let (M,g,X) be a noncompact four dimensional shrinking soliton with bounded nonnegative curvature operator, then (M,g) is isometric to R^4 or a finite quotient of S^2xR^2 or S^3xR. In the process we also show that a complete shrinking soliton (M,g,X) with bounded curvature is gradient and k-nonc…

Estimates heat equation on shrinking Ricci solitons with uniform bounds.

We first show that a Kähler cone appears as the tangent cone of a complete expanding gradient Kähler-Ricci soliton with quadratic curvature decay with derivatives if and only if it has a smooth canonical model (on which the soliton lives). This allows us to classify two-dimensional complete expanding gradient Kähler-Ri…

It is shown that the diameter of a compact shrinking Ricci soliton has a universal lower bound. This is proved by extending universal estimates for the first non-zero eigenvalue of Laplacian on compact Riemannian manifolds with lower Ricci curvature bound to a twisted Laplacian on compact shrinking Ricci solitons.

5D shrinking Ricci solitons with constant scalar curvature are rigid.

As of today, there are very few known complete shrinking Ricci solitons in dimension 4, and all examples discovered so far are Kähler and/or Einstein.

In this paper we introduce entropy-stability and F-stability for homothetically shrinking Yang-Mills solitons, employing entropy and second variation of $\mathcal{F}$-functional respectively. For a homothetically shrinking soliton which does not descend, we prove that entropy-stability implies F-stability. These stabil…

We then generalize this integral identity to complete noncompact gradient shrinking Ricci solitons, under the conditions that the Ricci curvatur…

In this paper, we have proved that if a complete conformally flat gradient shrinking Ricci soliton has linear volume growth or the scalar curvature is finitely integrable and also the reciprocal of the potential function is subharmonic, then the manifold is isometric to the Euclidean sphere. As a consequence, we have s…
