Ricci Solitons and Einstein-Scalar Field Theory

open access: yes, 2009
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.

Degree theory for 4‐dimensional asymptotically conical gradient expanding solitons

open access: yesCommunications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, Volume 79, Issue 5, Page 1151-1298, May 2026.
Abstract We develop a new degree theory for 4‐dimensional, asymptotically conical gradient expanding solitons. Our theory implies the existence of gradient expanding solitons that are asymptotic to any given cone over S3$S^3$ with non‐negative scalar curvature. We also obtain a similar existence result for cones whose link is diffeomorphic to S3/Γ$S^3/\

$\alpha$-Almost Ricci solitons on $(k,\mu)'$-almost Kenmotsu manifolds

open access: yesNovi Sad Journal of Mathematics, 2021
Summary: We consider \(\alpha\)-almost Ricci solitons on \((k,\mu)'\)-almost Kenmotsu manifolds with an \(\eta\)-parallel Ricci tensor. Then we study \(\alpha\)-almost Ricci solitons on \((k,\mu)'\)-almost Kenmotsu manifolds satisfying the curvature conditions \(P.\phi = 0\), \(Q.P = 0\) and \(Q.R = 0\) respectively. Finally, we construct an example of

Toral symmetries of collapsed ancient solutions to the homogeneous Ricci flow

open access: yesJournal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 113, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Collapsed ancient solutions to the homogeneous Ricci flow on compact manifolds occur only on the total space of principal torus bundles. Under an algebraic assumption that guarantees flowing through diagonal metrics and a tameness assumption on the collapsing directions, we prove that such solutions have additional symmetries, that is, they ...

Curvature and Solitonic Structures of Para‐Sasakian Manifolds With Schouten–van Kampen Connection on the Tangent Bundle

open access: yesJournal of Mathematics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This paper investigates the complete lift of para‐Sasakian structures to the tangent bundle equipped with the Schouten–van Kampen connection (SVKC). By analyzing curvature tensors and soliton equations, we establish the existence of Ricci, Yamabe, and η‐Ricci solitons in the lifted setting.

Optimization of Soliton Structures Using Lifting Theory on Tangent Bundles of Statistical Kenmotsu Manifolds

open access: yesJournal of Mathematics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This paper investigates the optimization of soliton structures on tangent bundles of statistical Kenmotsu manifolds through lifting theory. By constructing lifted statistical Kenmotsu structures using semisymmetric metric and nonmetric connections, we derive explicit expressions for the curvature tensor, Ricci operator, and scalar curvature. We analyze

Photoacoustics for Direct Light‐Guiding Inside Transparent and Scattering Media

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, Volume 19, Issue 8, April 17, 2025.
A novel method for guiding light in transparent and scattering media without external components is presented. A pulsed laser and absorptive material generate photoacoustic pressure waves within the medium, creating refractive index gradients for sub‐microsecond light guiding.

On a Class of Gradient Almost Ricci Solitons [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Malaysian Mathematical Sciences Society, 2020
In this study, we provide some classifications for half-conformally flat gradient $f$-almost Ricci solitons, denoted by $(M, g, f)$, in both Lorentzian and neutral signature. First, we prove that if $||\nabla f||$ is a non-zero constant, then $(M, g, f)$ is locally isometric to a {warped product} of the form $I \times_ N$, where $I \subset \mathbb{R}$

Some Properties of the Potential Field of an Almost Ricci Soliton

open access: yesMathematics
In this article, we are interested in finding necessary and sufficient conditions for a compact almost Ricci soliton to be a trivial Ricci soliton. As a first result, we show that positive Ricci curvature and, for a nonzero constant c, the integral of ...

Lorentzian Para‐Kenmotsu Manifolds Within the Framework of ∗‐Conformal η‐Ricci Soliton

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The present article intends to study the ∗‐conformal η‐Ricci soliton on n‐LPK (n‐dimensional Lorentzian para‐Kenmotsu) manifolds with curvature constraints. On n‐LPK, we derive certain results of ∗‐conformal η‐Ricci soliton satisfying the Codazzi‐type equation, R(ξ, L) · S = 0, the projective flatness of the n‐LPK manifold. At last, we conclude with an
