Almost Ricci-harmonic solitons are generalization of Ricci-harmonic solitons, almost Ricci solitons and harmonic-Einstein metrics. The main focus of this paper is to establish necessary and sufficient conditions for a gradient shrinking almost Ricci-harmonic soliton on a compact domain to be almost harmonic-Einstein.

In this paper, we introduce the Sasaki–Ricci flow to study the existence of η-Einstein metrics. In the positive case any η-Einstein metric can be homothetically transformed to a Sasaki–Einstein metric. Hence it is an odd-dimensional counterpart of the Kähler–Ricci flow. We prove its well-posedness and long-time existence. In the negative or null case the flow converges to the unique η-Einstein metric. In the positive case the convergence remains in general open. The paper can be viewed as an odd-dimensional counterpart of Cao's results on the Kähler–Ricci flow.

AbstractWe prove the existence and uniqueness of Kähler–Einstein metrics on {{\mathbb{Q}}}-Fano varieties with log terminal singularities (and more generally on log Fano pairs) whose Mabuchi functional is proper. We study analogues of the works of Perelman on the convergence of the normalized Kähler–Ricci flow, and of Keller, Rubinstein on its discrete version, Ricci iteration. In the special case of (non-singular) Fano manifolds, our results on Ricci iteration yield smooth convergence without any additional condition, improving on previous results. Our result for the Kähler–Ricci flow provides weak convergence independently of Perelman’s celebrated estimates.

This paper focuses on the study of a deformation of Finsler metrics satisfying Ricci flow equation. We will prove that every deformation of Randers (Kropina)-metrics satisfying Ricci flow equation is Einstein, we will also show that a deformation of Einstein metrics with initial Randers (Kropina)-metrics remains Randers (Kropina). In other words the deformation of Randers (or Kropina)-metrics is exactly the fixed point of (un-normal and normal) Ricci flow equation.

We construct complete gradient Kähler–Ricci solitons of various types on the total spaces of certain holomorphic line bundles over compact Kähler–Einstein manifolds with positive scalar curvature. Those are noncompact analogues of the compact examples found by Koiso [On rotationally symmetric Hamilton's equations for Kähler–Einstein metrics, in Recent Topics in Differential and Analytic Geometry, Advanced Studies in Pure Mathematics, Vol. 18-I (Academic Press, Boston, MA, 1990), pp. 327–337]. Our examples can be viewed a generalization of previous examples by Cao [Existense of gradient Kähler–Ricci solitons, in Elliptic and Parabolic Methods in Geometry (Minneapolis, MN, 1994), pp. 1–16], Chave and Valent [On a class of compact and non-compact quasi-Einstein metrics and their renormalizability properties, Nuclear Phys. B 478 (1996) 758–778], Pedersen, Tønnesen-Friedman, and Valent [Quasi-Einstein Kähler metrics, Lett. Math. Phys. 50(3) (1999) 229–241], and Feldman, Ilmanen and Knopf [Rotationally symmetric shrinking and expanding gradient Kähler–Ricci solitons, J. Differential Geom. 65 (2003) 169–209]. We also prove a uniformization result on complete steady gradient Kähler–Ricci solitons with non-negative Ricci curvature under additional assumptions.
