TL;DR: In this paper, a contact metric manifold whose metric is a Riemann soliton was studied and it was shown that the manifold is either of constant curvature + 1 (and V is Killing) or D-homothetically invariant.
Abstract: In this paper, we study contact metric manifold whose metric is a Riemann soliton. First, we consider Riemann soliton (g; V ) with V as contact vector eld on a Sasakian manifold (M; g) and in this case we prove that M is either of constant curvature +1 (and V is Killing) or D-homothetically xed -Einstein manifold (and V leaves the structure tensor φ invariant). Next, we prove that if a compact K-contact manifold whose metric g is a gradient almost Riemann soliton, then it is Sasakian and isometric to a unit sphere S2n+1. Further, we study H-contact manifold admitting a Riemann soliton (g; V ) where V is pointwise collinear with .Key words: Contact metric manifold, Riemann soliton, gradient almost Riemann soliton.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that if the metric of a non-cosymplectic normal almost contact metric manifold is Riemann soliton with divergence-free potential vector field (Z), then the manifold is quasi-Sakian and is of constant sectional curvature -$\lambda.
Abstract: The quest of the offering article is to investigate \emph{almost Riemann soliton} and \emph{gradient almost Riemann soliton} in a non-cosymplectic normal almost contact metric manifold $M^3$. Before all else, it is proved that if the metric of $M^3$ is Riemann soliton with divergence-free potential vector field $Z$, then the manifold is quasi-Sasakian and is of constant sectional curvature -$\lambda$, provided $\alpha,\beta =$ constant. Other than this, it is shown that if the metric of $M^3$ is \emph{ARS} and $Z$ is pointwise collinear with $\xi $ and has constant divergence, then $Z$ is a constant multiple of $\xi $ and the \emph{ARS} reduces to a Riemann soliton, provided $\alpha,\;\beta =$constant. Additionally, it is established that if $M^3$ with $\alpha,\; \beta =$ constant admits a gradient \emph{ARS} $(\gamma,\xi,\lambda)$, then the manifold is either quasi-Sasakian or is of constant sectional curvature $-(\alpha^2-\beta^2)$. At long last, we develop an example of $M^3$ conceding a Riemann soliton.

TL;DR: In this article, almost Riemann solitons were considered in a manifold and underlined their relation to almost Ricci (Riemannian) soliton and Ricci solitón.
Abstract: We consider almost Riemann solitons $(V,\lambda)$ in a Riemannian manifold and underline their relation to almost Ricci solitons. When $V$ is of gradient type, using Bochner formula, we explicitly express the function $\lambda$ by means of the gradient vector field $V$ and illustrate the result with suitable examples. Moreover, we deduce some properties for the particular cases when the potential vector field of the soliton is solenoidal or torse-forming, with a special view towards curvature.

TL;DR: In this article, Boyer and Galicki showed that a complete K-contact gradient soliton is a Jacobi vector field along the geodesics of the Reeb vector field.
Abstract: Inspired by a result of Boyer and Galicki, we prove that a complete K-contact gradient soliton is compact Einstein and Sasakian. For the non-gradient case we show that the soliton vector field is a Jacobi vector field along the geodesics of the Reeb vector field. Next we show that among all complete and simply connected K-contact manifolds only the unit sphere admits a non-Killing holomorphically planar conformal vector field (HPCV). Finally we show that, if a (k, μ)-contact manifold admits a non-zero HPCV, then it is either Sasakian or locally isometric to E3 or En+1 × Sn (4).
