Abstract
In this paper, we extend existing results for generalized solitons, called q-solitons, to the complete case by considering non-compact solitons. By placing regularity conditions on the vector field X and curvature conditions on M, we are able to use the chosen properties of the tensor q to see that such non-compact q-solitons are stationary and q-flat. We conclude by applying our results to the examples of ambient obstruction solitons, Cotton solitons, and Bach solitons to demonstrate the utility of these general theorems for various flows.
