Spherical Ricci tori with rotational symmetry

In this article, we study $c$-spherical Ricci metrics, that is, Riemannian metrics whose Gaussian curvature $K$ satisfies \begin{equation*} (K - c)ΔK - |\nabla K|^2 - 4K(K - c)^2 = 0, \end{equation*} for some $c>0$. We explicitly construct a two-parameter family of such metrics with rotational symmetry and show that infinitely many non-isometric examples can be realized on the same torus. Moreover, we investigate their realization as induced metrics on compact rotational surfaces in $\mathbb{S}^3$, establishing the existence of embedded compact spherical Ricci surfaces by controlling a period function associated with the isometric immersion.
