We set our target to investigate Yamabe solitons, gradient Yamabe solitons and gradient Einstein solitons within the structure of 3-dimensional non-cosymplectic normal almost contact metric manifolds. Also, we provide a nontrivial example and validate a result of our paper.

The aim of the present paper is to study some solitons on three dimensional generalized (𝜅, 𝜇)-contact metric manifolds. We study gradient Yamabe solitons on three dimensional generalized (𝜅, 𝜇)-contact metric manifolds. It is proved that if the metric of a three dimensional generalized (𝜅, 𝜇)-contact metric manifold is gradient Einstein soliton then ${\mu}={\frac{2{\kappa}}{{\kappa}-2}}$. It is shown that if the metric of a three dimensional generalized (𝜅, 𝜇)-contact metric manifold is closed m-quasi Einstein metric then ${\kappa}={\frac{\lambda}{m+2}}$ and 𝜇 = 0. We also study conformal gradient Ricci solitons on three dimensional generalized (𝜅, 𝜇)-contact metric manifolds.

The object of the present paper is to characterize 3-dimensional trans-Sasakian manifolds of type (α, β) admitting ∗-Ricci solitons and ∗-gradient Ricci solitons. Under certain restrictions on the smooth functions α and β, we have proved that a trans-Sasakian 3-manifold of type (α, β) admitting a ∗-Ricci soliton reduces to a β-Kenmotsu manifold and admitting a ∗-gradient Ricci soliton is either flat or ∗-Einstein or it becomes a β-Kenmotsu manifold. Also an illustrative example is presented to verify our results.

The purpose of this article is to study the Ricci solitons and Ricci almost solitons on para-Kenmotsu manifold. First, we prove that if a para-Kenmotsu metric represents a Ricci soliton with the soliton vector field V is contact, then it is Einstein and the soliton is shrinking. Next, we prove that if a ${\eta}$-Einstein para-Kenmotsu metric represents a Ricci soliton, then it is Einstein with constant scalar curvature and the soliton is shrinking. Further, we prove that if a para-Kenmotsu metric represents a gradient Ricci almost soliton, then it is ${\eta}$-Einstein. This result is also hold for Ricci almost soliton if the potential vector field V is pointwise collinear with the Reeb vector field ${\xi}$.

In this paper we consider gradient almost Ricci solitons with weak conditions on Weyl and Bach tensors. We show that a gradient almost Ricci soliton has harmonic Weyl curvature if it has fourth order divergence-free Weyl tensor, or it has divergence-free Bach tensor. Furthermore, if its Weyl tensor is radially flat, we prove such a gradient almost Ricci soliton is locally a warped product with Einstein fibers. Finally, we prove a rigidity result on compact gradient almost Ricci solitons satisfying an integral condition.

In this paper, we study certain doubly-warped products which admit gradient Ricci solitons with harmonic Weyl curvature and non-constant soliton function. The metric is of the form $g=dx^2_1+p(x_1)^2dx^2_2+h(x_1)^2\;{\tilde{g}}$ on ${\mathbb{R}}^2{\times}N$, where $x_1$, $x_2$ are the local coordinates on ${\mathbb{R}}^2$ and ${\tilde{g}}$ is an Einstein metric on the manifold N. We obtained a full description of all the possible local gradient Ricci solitons.

We characterize a three-dimensional Riemannian manifold endowed with a type of semi-symmetric metric P-connection. At first, it is proven that if the metric of such a manifold is a gradient m-quasi-Einstein metric, then either the gradient of the potential function 𝜓 is collinear with the vector field P or, λ = -(m + 2) and the manifold is of constant sectional curvature -1, provided P𝜓 ≠ m. Next, it is shown that if the metric of the manifold under consideration is a gradient 𝜌-Einstein soliton, then the gradient of the potential function is collinear with the vector field P. Also, we prove that if the metric of a 3-dimensional manifold with semi-symmetric metric P-connection is a gradient 𝜔-Ricci soliton, then the manifold is of constant sectional curvature -1 and λ + 𝜇 = -2. Finally, we consider an example to verify our results.

In this paper, we obtain the criteria that the Riemannian manifold B is Einstein or a gradient Ricci soliton from the information of the second derivative of $f$ in the warped product space $R{\times}_fB$ with gradient Ricci solitons. Moreover, we construct new examples of non-Einstein gradient Ricci soliton spaces with an Einstein or non-Einstein gradient Ricci soliton leaf using our main theorems. Finally we also get analogous criteria for the Lorentzian version.

In the present paper is to classify Beta-almost (${\beta}$-almost) Ricci solitons and ${\beta}$-almost gradient Ricci solitons on almost $CoK{\ddot{a}}hler$ manifolds with ${\xi}$ belongs to ($k,{\mu}$)-nullity distribution. In this paper, we prove that such manifolds with V is contact vector field and $Q{\phi}={\phi}Q$ is ${\eta}$-Einstein and it is steady when the potential vector field is pointwise collinear to the reeb vectoer field. Moreover, we prove that a ($k,{\mu}$)-almost $CoK{\ddot{a}}hler$ manifolds admitting ${\beta}$-almost gradient Ricci solitons is isometric to a sphere.
