Rigidity of complete non-compact generalized m-quasi-Einstein manifolds

We study complete non compact gradient generalized m quasi Einstein manifolds with constant scalar curvature R <= 0, soliton function lambda > 0, and m > 1, where the coefficient mu = 1/m is constant. We introduce the weighted function v and prove it is subharmonic. This leads to four rigidity results, showing that the hypotheses are mutually inconsistent; consequently, no complete non compact gradient generalized m quasi Einstein manifold exists under the stated assumptions. We first show by a concrete example that if mu is allowed to be nonconstant, the rigidity conclusions fail even when all other hypotheses are satisfied. Therefore the constant mu condition is essential.

Harmonic vector fields and the Hodge Laplacian operator on Finsler geometry

We first present the natural definitions of the horizontal differential, the divergence (as an adjoint operator), and a $p$-harmonic form on a Finsler manifold. Next, we prove a Hodge-type theorem for a Finsler manifold in the sense that a horizontal $p$-form is harmonic if and only if the horizontal Laplacian vanishes. This viewpoint provides a new appropriate natural definition of harmonic vector fields in Finsler geometry. This approach leads to a Bochner-Yano type classification theorem based on the harmonic Ricci scalar. Finally, we show that a closed orientable Finsler manifold with a positive harmonic Ricci scalar has a zero Betti number.
