Abstract

We prove that every complete Kähler–Ricci shrinker with nonnegative Ricci curvature is holomorphically isometric to for some , where is the Gaussian shrinker and is a compact Kähler–Ricci shrinker with nonnegative Ricci curvature. As a corollary, every complete Kähler–Ricci shrinker with quasi-positive Ricci curvature is compact.
