Abstract: In this paper, we prove some classification results for four-dimensional gradient Ricci solitons. For a four-dimensional gradient shrinking Ricci soliton with $di{v}^{4}R{m}^{p}m=0$, we show that it is either Einstein or a finite quotient of $mathbb{R}^4$, $mathbb{S}^{2}imesmathbb{R}^2$ or $mathbb{S}^{3}imesmathbbR$. The same result can be obtained under the condition of $di{v}^4{W}^{p}m=0$. We also present some classification results of four-dimensional complete non-compact gradient expanding Ricci soliton with non-negative Ricci curvature and gradient steady Ricci solitons under certain curvature conditions.
