TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the Ricci soliton of a 3-dimensional Kenmotsu manifold is locally isometric to the hyperbolic 3-space and the potential vector field coincides with the Reeb vector field.
Abstract: Let $(M,\phi,\xi,\eta,g)$ be a three-dimensional Kenmotsu manifold. In this paper, we prove that the triple $(g,V,\lambda)$ on $M$ is a $*$-Ricci soliton if and only if $M$ is locally isometric to the hyperbolic 3-space $\mathbf{H}^3(-1)$ and $\lambda=0$. Moreover, if $g$ is a gradient $*$-Ricci soliton, then the potential vector field coincides with the Reeb vector field. We also show that the metric of a coKahler 3-manifold is a $*$-Ricci soliton if and only if it is a Ricci soliton.

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that if the metric g of M is a *-Ricci soliton, then either M is locally isometric to the product ℍn+1(−4)×ℝn or the potential vector field is strict infinitesimal contact transformation.
Abstract: Abstract Let (M, g) be a non-Kenmotsu (κ, μ)′-almost Kenmotsu manifold of dimension 2n + 1. In this paper, we prove that if the metric g of M is a *-Ricci soliton, then either M is locally isometric to the product ℍn+1(−4)×ℝn or the potential vector field is strict infinitesimal contact transformation. Moreover, two concrete examples of (κ, μ)′-almost Kenmotsu 3-manifolds admitting a Killing vector field and strict infinitesimal contact transformation are given.

TL;DR: In this article, the Ricci soliton is shown to be Ricci flat and locally isometric with respect to the Euclidean distance of the potential vector field when the manifold satisfies gradient almost.
Abstract: In the present paper, we initiate the study of $$*$$ - $$\eta $$ -Ricci soliton within the framework of Kenmotsu manifolds as a characterization of Einstein metrics. Here we display that a Kenmotsu metric as a $$*$$ - $$\eta $$ -Ricci soliton is Einstein metric if the soliton vector field is contact. Further, we have developed the characterization of the Kenmotsu manifold or the nature of the potential vector field when the manifold satisfies gradient almost $$*$$ - $$\eta $$ -Ricci soliton. Next, we deliberate $$*$$ - $$\eta $$ -Ricci soliton admitting $$(\kappa ,\mu )^\prime $$ -almost Kenmotsu manifold and proved that the manifold is Ricci flat and is locally isometric to $${\mathbb {H}}^{n+1}(-4)\times {\mathbb {R}}^n$$ . Finally we present some examples to decorate the existence of $$*$$ - $$\eta $$ -Ricci soliton, gradient almost $$*$$ - $$\eta $$ -Ricci soliton on Kenmotsu manifold.

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that if the metric g represents a Yamabe soliton, then it is locally isometric to the product space and the contact transformation is a strict infinitesimal contact transformation.
Abstract: Let $$(M^{2n+1},\phi ,\xi ,\eta ,g)$$ be a non-Kenmotsu almost Kenmotsu $$(k,\mu )'$$ -manifold. If the metric g represents a Yamabe soliton, then either $$M^{2n+1}$$ is locally isometric to the product space $$\mathbb {H}^{n+1}(-4)\times \mathbb {R}^n$$ or $$\eta $$ is a strict infinitesimal contact transformation. The later case can not occur if a Yamabe soliton is replaced by a gradient Yamabe soliton. Some corollaries of this theorem are given and an example illustrating this theorem is constructed.
