Invariant solutions of gradient $k$-Yamabe solitons

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to study gradient $k$-Yamabe solitons conformal to pseudo-Euclidean space. We characterize all such solitons invariant under the action of an $(n-1)$-dimensional translation group. For rotational invariant solutions, we provide the classification of solitons with null curvatures. As an application, we construct infinitely many explicit examples of geodesically complete steady gradient $k$-Yamabe solitons conformal to the Lorentzian space.
