Rigidity and vanishing theorems for complete translating solitons

Abstract

In this paper, we prove some rigidity theorems for complete translating solitons. Assume that the $L^q$-norm of the trace-free second fundamental form is finite, for some $q\in \mathbb{R}$ and using a Sobolev inequality, we show that translator must be hyperspace. Our results can be considered as a generalization of \cite{Ma, WXZ16, Xin15}. We also investigate a vanishing property for translators which states that there are no nontrivial $L_f^p(p\ge 2)$ weighted harmonic $1$-forms on $M$ if the $L^n$-norm of the second fundamental form is bounded.
