Remarks on potential functions of noncompact quasi-Einstein manifolds

In this article, we study the set of potential functions on noncompact quasi-Einstein manifolds. We show that the space of all positive potential functions on a three-dimensional noncompact quasi-Einstein manifold has dimension at most two, and that equality holds if and only if the manifold is isometric to a product $B\times\mathbb{R}$, where $B$ is a $λ$-Einstein surface or one of the examples obtained by L. Berard Bergery and described in Besse's book. Moreover, we prove that any asymptotically flat $n$-dimensional quasi-Einstein manifold with $λ=0$ is necessarily Ricci-flat.

Spectral properties for critical metrics of the volume functional

In this article, we investigate spectral properties of compact $V$-static manifolds, namely, compact manifolds with boundary whose metrics are critical points of the volume functional under a scalar curvature constraint. We derive sharp estimates for the first Steklov eigenvalue and the entire fourth-order Steklov spectrum. We further obtain a Lichnerowicz-type lower bound for the first eigenvalue of the drifted Laplacian naturally associated with the $V$-static potential. In the corresponding equality cases, we obtain rigidity results characterizing the Euclidean ball and the hemisphere.

Geometric inequalities for quasi-Einstein manifolds

In this article, we investigate certain geometric inequalities on quasi-Einstein manifolds. We use the generalized Reilly's formulas by Qiu-Xia and Li-Xia to establish new boundary estimates and an isoperimetric type inequality for compact quasi-Einstein manifolds with boundary. Boundary estimates in terms of the first eigenvalue of the Jacobi operator and the Hawking mass are also established. In particular, we present a Heintze-Karcher type inequality for compact domains in quasi-Einstein manifolds.
