Abstract
In this note, we show that the potential vector field of a Cotton soliton (M, g, V) is an infinitesimal harmonic transformation, and we use it to give another proof of the triviality of compact Cotton solitons. Moreover, we extend this triviality result to the complete case by imposing certain regularity conditions on the potential vector field V.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Letters in Mathematical Physics is to attract the community''s attention on important and original developments in the area of mathematical physics and contemporary theoretical physics. The journal publishes letters and longer research articles, occasionally also articles containing topical reviews. We are committed to both fast publication and careful refereeing. In addition, the journal offers important contributions to modern mathematics in fields which have a potential physical application, and important developments in theoretical physics which have potential mathematical impact.
