New families of Ricci solitons found with collapsing volume.

We introduce a class of overdetermined systems of partial differential equations of finite type on (pseudo)-Riemannian manifolds that we call the generalised Ricci soliton equations. These equations depend on three real parameters. For special values of the parameters they specialise to various important classes of equ…

Estimates heat equation on shrinking Ricci solitons with uniform bounds.

Some aspects of the multidimensional soliton geometry are considered. It is shown that some simples (2+1)-dimensional equations are exact reductions of the Self-Dual Yang-Mills equation or its higher hierarchy.

The purpose of this paper is to introduce the Ricci Yang-Mills soliton equations on nilpotent Lie groups. In the 2-step nilpotent setting, we show that these equations are strictly weaker than the Ricci soliton equations. Using techniques from Geometric Invariant Theory, we develop a procedure to build many different k…

The paper characterizes Ricci solitons on the Poincaré upper half plane.

We give a review of the systematic construction of hierarchies of soliton flows and integrable elliptic equations associated to a complex semi-simple Lie algebra and finite order automorphisms. For example, the non-linear Schrödinger equation, the n-wave equation, and the sigma-model are soliton flows; and the equation…

In this paper, we investigate the relationship between algebraic soliton metrics and soliton metrics for geometric evolution equations on Lie groups. After discussing the general relationship between algebraic soliton metrics and soliton metrics, we investigate the cross curvature flow and the second order renormalizat…

We extend short-time existence and stability of the Dirichlet energy flow as proven in a previous paper by the authors to a broader class of energy functionals. Furthermore, we derive some monotonely decreasing quantities for the Dirichlet energy flow and investigate an equation of soliton type. In particular, we show …

The reduction problem of the chiral field equation on symmetric spaces is studied. It is shown that the symmetric chiral field has infinitely many local conservation laws. A recursive formula for these conservation laws is derived and the first associated integral of motion are given explicitly. Furthermore, the Zakhar…

This paper studies gradient almost Ricci-harmonic soliton with respect to a fixed metric. We rely on analytic techniques to estabilish some basic elliptic and integral equations for the structure of almost Ricci-harmonic soliton which generalizes that of Ricci-hamonic solitons on one hand and that of almost Ricci solit…

A connection between differential geometry and soliton equations is discussed

Some aspects of the connection between differential geometry and multidimensional soliton equations are discussed.

We consider three- and four-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian generalized symmetric spaces, whose invariant metrics were explicitly described in [15]. While four-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian generalized symmetric spaces of types A, C and D are algebraic Ricci solitons, the ones of type B are not so. The Ricci soliton equa…

We give a survey of the following six closely related topics: (i) a general method for constructing a soliton hierarchy from a splitting of a loop algebra into positive and negative subalgebras, together with a sequence of commuting positive elements, (ii) a method---based on (i)---for constructing soliton hierarchies …

If the potential vector field of an $η$-Ricci soliton is of gradient type, using Bochner formula, we derive from the soliton equation a Laplacian equation satisfied by the potential function $f$. In a particular case of irrotational potential vector field we prove that the soliton is completely determined by $f$. We gi…

We show how to view the equations for a cohomogeneity one Ricci soliton as a Hamiltonian system with a constraint. We investigate conserved quantities and superpotentials, and use this to find some explicit formulae for Ricci solitons not of Kähler type in five dimensions.

We show that the linear trace Harnack quadratic on a steady gradient Ricci soliton satisfies the heat equation. Similar result holds for shrinkers. We also present an interpolation between Perelman's and Cao--Hamilton's Harnacks on a steady soliton.

We give an analytic approach to the translating soliton equation with a special emphasis in the study of the Dirichlet problem in convex domains of the plane.

In this paper, we consider the $V$-soliton equation which is a degenerate fully nonlinear equation introduced by La Nave and Tian in their work on Kähler-Ricci flow on symplectic quotients. One can apply the interpretation to study finite time singularities of the Kähler-Ricci flow. As in the case of Kähler-Einstein me…

The Ward equation, also called the modified 2+1 chiral model, is obtained by a dimension reduction and a gauge fixing from the self-dual Yang-Mills field equation on $R^{2,2}$. It has a Lax pair and is an integrable system. Ward constructed solitons whose extended solutions have distinct simple poles. He also used a li…

The article explores surfaces and soliton equations using spinors.

In 2002, using a variational method, Lauret classified five-dimensional nilsolitons. In this work, using the algebraic Ricci soliton equation, we obtain the same classification. We show that, among ten classes of five-dimensional nilmanifolds, seven classes admit Ricci soliton structure. In any case, the derivation whi…

The paper studies geometric structures in perfect fluid spacetimes with specific metrics.

We consider gradient Ricci solitons conformal to a $n$-dimensional pseudo-Euclidean space and we completely describe the most general ansatz that reduces the resulting system of partial differential equations to a system of ordinary differential equations. As a consequence, the gradient Ricci solitons that arise from t…

In this paper, we first show an interpretation of the Kähler-Ricci flow on a manifold $X$ as an exact elliptic equation of Einstein type on a manifold $M$ of which $X$ is one of the (Kähler) symplectic reductions via a (non-trivial) torus action. There are plenty of such manifolds (e.g. any line bundle on $X$ will do).…

New method learns soliton dynamics from scattering data without assuming known equations.

Motion of curves and surfaces in $\R^3$ lead to nonlinear evolution equations which are often integrable. They are also intimately connected to the dynamics of spin chains in the continuum limit and integrable soliton systems through geometric and gauge symmetric connections/equivalence. Here we point out the fact that…

We show that the generalized Kähler-Ricci soliton equation on 4-dimensional toric Kähler orbifolds reduces to ODEs assuming there is a Hamiltonian 2-form. This leads to an explicit resolution of this equation on labeled triangles and convex labeled quadrilaterals. In particular, we give the explicit expression of the K…

Universal bi-Hamiltonian hierarchies of group-invariant (multicomponent) soliton equations are derived from non-stretching geometric curve flows $\map(t,x)$ in Riemannian symmetric spaces $M=G/H$, including compact semisimple Lie groups $M=K$ for $G=K\times K$, $H={\rm diag} G$. The derivation of these soliton hierarch…
