Geometry of gradient Yamabe solitons

From MaRDI portal





Let \((M,g)\) be a complete Riemannian manifold. The Riemannian metric \(g=g_{ij}dx^idx^j\) is called a gradient Yamabe soliton if there exists a smooth function \(f:M\longrightarrow\mathbb{R}\) and a constant \(\lambda\in\mathbb{R}\) such that \[ (R-\lambda)g_{ij}=\nabla_i\nabla_jf, \] where \(R\) denotes the scalar curvature of the Riemannian metric \(g\). The authors show that for complete non-compact gradient Yamabe solitons if the scalar curvature satisfies some boundedness conditions then the gradient function is bounded. In dimension four, under some conditions, they prove that if the Weyl tensor is harmonic then the Riemannian curvature and its derivatives are bounded.
