On gradient \(\eta\)-Einstein solitons. (English) Zbl 1488.53132

Summary: If the potential vector field of an \(\eta\)-Einstein soliton is of gradient type, using Bochner formula, we derive from the soliton equation a nonlinear second order PDE. Under certain conditions, the existence of an \(\eta\)-Einstein soliton forces the manifold to be of constant scalar curvature.
