Abstract: The purpose of our paper is to investigate the geometric behavior of complete noncompact and stochastically complete quasi k-Yamabe gradient solitons under appropriate conditions in order to obtain new triviality and nonexistence results. For this, we derive a suitable Bochner type formula and we apply it jointly with integrability criteria, Liouville 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.
