New degree theory proves existence of solitons on 4D manifolds.
We show that the theory of isothermic surfaces in $\E^3$ -- one of the oldest branches of differential geometry -- can be reformulated within the modern theory of completely integrable (soliton) systems. This enables one to study the geometry of isothermic surfaces in $\E^3$ by means of powerful spectral methods availa…
I analyze the one-dimensional, cubic Schrödinger equation, with nonlinearity constructed from the current density, rather than, as is usual, from the charge density. A soliton solution is found, where the soliton moves only in one direction. Relation to higher-dimensional Chern--Simons theory is indicated. The theory i…
This paper classifies all expanding Ricci solitons on surfaces.
Extends soliton theory to non-compact cases.
The concept of the Ricci soliton was introduced by Hamilton. Ricci soliton is defined by vector field and it's a natural generalization of Einstein metric. We have shown earlier that the vector field of Ricci soliton is an infinitesimal harmonic transformation. In our paper, we survey Ricci solitons geometry as an appl…
Analyzes the generality of solitons for structures.
We study deformations of shrinking Ricci solitons on a compact manifold M, generalising the classical theory of deformations of Einstein metrics. Using appropriate notions of twisted slices S_f inside the space of all Riemannian metrics on M, we define the infinitesimal solitonic deformations and the local solitonic pr…
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…
Non-trivial obstructions found for topological solitons in Yang-Mills-Chern-Simons theories.
The paper studies integral formulas for a specific type of soliton.
We use the theory of isoparametric functions to investigate gradient Ricci solitons with constant scalar curvature. We show rigidity of gradient Ricci solitons with constant scalar curvature under some conditions on the Ricci tensor, which are all satisfied if the manifold is curvature homogeneous. This leads to a comp…

The paper is devoted to the study of the global geometries of harmonic mappings and infinitesimal harmonic transformations and presents their applications to the theory of Ricci solitons.
Finite entropy translating solitons in slabs have quantized entropy and unique structure.
New steady gradient Ricci solitons found on specific four-manifolds.
In this paper we study the theory of self translating solitons of the mean curvature flow of immersed surfaces in the product space . We relate this theory to the one of manifolds with density, and exploit this relation by regarding these translating solitons as minimal surfaces in a confo…
The investigation of strings and M-theory involves the understanding of various BPS solitons which in a certain approximation can be thought of as solutions of ten- and eleven-dimensional supergravity theories. These solitons have a brane or a intersecting brane interpretation, saturate a bound and are associated with …

The differential geometry of Kenmotsu manifold is a valuable part of contact geometry with nice applications in other fields such as theoretical physics. In fact, its statistical counterpart, that is, Kenmotsu statistical manifold also has same importance as that of Kenmotsu manifold. Theoretical physicists have also b…
Ozawa solution describes surface deformation from Davey-Stewartson II equation.
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 …
We show that a left-invariant metric g on a nilpotent Lie group N is a soliton metric if and only if a matrix U and vector v associated the manifold (N,g) satisfy the matrix equation Uv = [1], where [1] is a vector with every entry a one. We associate a generalized Cartan matrix to the matrix U and use the theory of Ka…
The paper extends Ricci flow theory with Type-I scalar curvature bounds, proving entropy convergence and characterizing singular sets.
We introduce a natural extension of the concept of gradient Ricci soliton: the Ricci almost soliton. We provide existence and rigidity results, we deduce a-priori curvature estimates and isolation phenomena, and we investigate some topological properties. A number of differential identities involving the relevant geome…
Novel analysis of generalized Ricci solitons leads to stability results and deformations.
In this paper we obtain rigidity results and obstructions on the topology at infinity of translating solitons of the mean curvature flow in the Euclidean space. Our approach relies on the theory of f-minimal hypersurfaces.
In this paper we use the anholonomic frames method to construct exact solutions for vacuum 5D gravity with metrics having off-diagonal components. The solutions are in general anisotropic and possess interesting features such as an anisotropic warp factor with respect to the extra dimension, or a gravitational scaling/…
We address some aspects of four dimensional chiral N=1 supersymmetric theories on which the scalar manifold is described by Kähler geometry and can further be viewed as Kähler-Ricci soliton generating a one-parameter family of Kähler geometries. All couplings and solutions, namely the BPS domain walls and their supersy…
Novel flow modifies Ricci flow with string theory correction.
The geometric flow theory and its applications turned into one of the most intensively developing branches of modern geometry. Here, a brief introduction to Finslerian Ricci flow and their self-similar solutions known as Ricci solitons are given and some recent results are presented. They are a generalization of Einste…
In this paper we give some results on the topology of manifolds with -Bakry-Émery Ricci tensor bounded below, and in particular of steady and expanding gradient Ricci solitons. To this aim we clarify and further develop the theory of f-harmonic maps from non-compact manifolds into non-positively curved manifold…
The Bakry-Emery Ricci tensor of a metric-measure space (M,g,e^{-f}dv_{g}) plays an important role in both geometric measure theory and the study of Hamilton's Ricci flow. Under a uniform positivity condition on this tensor and with bounded Ricci curvature we show the underlying space has finite f-volume. As a consequen…
We review our recent work on solitons in the Higgs phase. We use U(N_C) gauge theory with N_F Higgs scalar fields in the fundamental representation, which can be extended to possess eight supercharges. We propose the moduli matrix as a fundamental tool to exhaust all BPS solutions, and to characterize all possible modu…
We consider dynamical stability for a modified Ricci flow equation whose stationary solutions include Einstein and Ricci soliton metrics. Our focus is on homogeneous metrics on non-compact manifolds. Following the program of Guenther, Isenberg, and Knopf, we define a class of weighted little Hölder spaces with certain …

String backgrounds yield simplified Hull-Strominger system solutions.
B List has recently studied a geometric flow whose fixed points correspond to static Ricci flat spacetimes. It is now known that this flow is in fact Ricci flow modulo pullback by a certain diffeomorphism. We use this observation to associate to each static Ricci flat spacetime a local Ricci soliton in one higher dimen…

In this paper we study several issues related to the generation of superpotential induced by background Ramond-Ramond fluxes in compactification of Type IIA string theory on Calabi-Yau four-folds. Identifying BPS solitons with D-branes wrapped over calibrated submanifolds in a Calabi-Yau space, we propose a general for…

Study ancient solutions on noncompact steady Ricci solitons, proving types of ancient solutions.
In dimension , there is a complete theory of weak solutions of Ricci flow - the singular Ricci flows introduced by Kleiner and Lott - which are unique across singularities, as was proved by Bamler and Kleiner. We show that uniqueness should not be expected to hold for Ricci flow weak solutions in dimensions $n\geq…
In this article we study homogeneous warped product Einstein metrics and its connections with homogeneous Ricci solitons. We show that homogeneous -Einstein manifolds (which are the bases of homogeneous warped product Einstein metrics) are one-dimensional extensions of algebraic solitons. This answers a questi…
