Abstract: The purpose of our paper is to investigate the geometric behavior of complete noncompact and stochastically complete quasi k-Yamabe gra- dient solitons under appropriate conditions in order to obtain new triv- iality and nonexistence results. For this, we derive a suitable Bochner type formula and we apply it jointly with integrability criteria, Liou- ville type results and several maximum principles dealing, in particular, with the notion of convergence to zero at infinity and the concept of polynomial and exponential volume growth.

Keywords: complete and stochastically complete quasi k-Yamabe gradient solitons, σk-curvature, convergence to zero at infinity, polynomial and exponential volume growth.
