Rigidity of Homogeneous Gradient Soliton Metrics and Related Equations
Abstract:
This is joint work with Will Wylie. The goal is to classify, if possible, the homogeneous geometric solitons. Here a geometric soliton is the soliton for a geometric flow. The Ricci flow is the most prominent example of such a flow, but there are man others where the Ricci tensor is replaced with some other tensor that depends in a natural way on the Riemannian structure. We will also consider some more general problems showing that our techniques can be used for other geometric problems.
