 $\ast$-Ricci solitons and $\ast$-gradient Ricci solitons on 3-dimensional trans-Sasakian manifolds Commun. Korean Math. Soc. 2020 Vol. 35, No. 2, 625-637 https://doi.org/10.4134/CKMS.c190121Published online April 6, 2020 Dibakar Dey, Pradip Majhi Kolkata - 700019; Kolkata - 700019 Abstract : The object of the present paper is to characterize $3$-dimen\-sional trans-Sasakian manifolds of type $(\alpha,\beta)$ admitting $\ast$-Ricci solitons and $\ast$-gradient Ricci solitons. Under certain restrictions on the smooth functions $\alpha$ and $\beta$, we have proved that a trans-Sasakian $3$-manifold of type $(\alpha,\beta)$ admitting a $\ast$-Ricci soliton reduces to a $\beta$-Kenmotsu manifold and admitting a $\ast$-gradient Ricci soliton is either flat or $\ast$-Einstein or it becomes a $\beta$-Kenmotsu manifold. Also an illustrative example is presented to verify our results.
