Abstract

This paper studies cohomogeneity one Ricci solitons. If the isotropy representation of the principal orbit $G/K$ consists of two inequivalent $\operatorname{Ad}_K$-invariant irreducible summands, the existence of continuous families of non-homothetic complete steady and expanding Ricci solitons on non-trivial bundles is shown. These examples were detected numerically by Buzano–Dancer–Gallaugher–Wang. The analysis of the corresponding Ricci flat trajectories is used to reconstruct Einstein metrics of positive scalar curvature due to Böhm. The techniques also apply to $m$-quasi-Einstein metrics.
