TITLE: Classification results for expanding and shrinking gradient Kähler-Ricci solitons

ABSTRACT: A complete Kahler metric g on a Kahler manifold M is a “gradient Kahler-Ricci soliton” if there exists a smooth real-valued function f:M\to\mathbb{R} with \nabla f holomorphic such that \operatorname{Ric}(g)-\operatorname{Hess}(f)+\lambda g=0 for \lambda a real number. I will present some classification results for such manifolds. This is joint work with Alix Deruelle (Université Paris-Sud) and Song Sun (UC Berkeley).
