### Ricci solitons in almost $f$-cosymplectic manifolds

Xiaomin Chen

#### Abstract

In this article we study an almost $f$-cosymplectic manifold admitting a Ricci soliton. We first prove that there do not exist Ricci solitons on an almost cosymplectic $(\kappa,\mu)$-manifold. Further, we consider an almost $f$-cosymplectic manifold admitting a Ricci soliton whose potential vector field is the Reeb vector field and show that a three dimensional almost $f$-cosymplectic is a cosymplectic manifold. Finally we classify a three dimensional $\eta$-Einstein almost $f$-cosymplectic manifold admitting a Ricci soliton..
