This paper examines the behavior of a 3-dimensional trans-Sasakian manifold equipped with a gradient generalized quasi-Yamabe soliton. In particular, It is shown that α-Sasakian, β-Kenmotsu and cosymplectic manifolds satisfy the gradient generalized quasi-Yamabe soliton equation. Furthermore, in the particular case when the potential vector field ζ of the quasi-Yamabe soliton is of gradient type ζ = grad(ψ), we derive a Pois-son’s equation from the quasi-Yamabe soliton equation. Also, we study harmonic aspects of quasi-Yamabe solitons on 3-dimensional trans-Sasakian manifolds sharing a harmonic potential function ψ. Finally, we observe that 3-dimensional compact trans-Sasakian mani-fold admits the gradient generalized almost quasi-Yamabe soliton with Hodge-de Rham po-tential ψ. This research ends with few examples of quasi-Yamabe solitons on 3-dimensional trans-Sasakian manifolds.

In the past twenty years, geometric flows have emerged as versatile tools for describing geometric structures in Riemannian geometry. A specific class of solutions on which the metric evolves by dilation and diffeomorphisms plays a vital part in the study of singularities of the flows as they appear as possible singularity models. They are often called soliton solutions.
The theory of Yamabe flow was popularized by Hamilton in his prime research work [12] as a tool for constructing metrics of constant scalar curvature on an

A Yamabe soliton is a special solution of the Yamabe flow that moves by one parameter a family of diffeomorphisms generated by a fixed vector field

An Einstein manifold [2] with a constant potential function is called a trivial gradient Ricci soliton. Gradient Yamabe solitons [14] play an important role in Yamabe flow as they correspond to self-similar solutions, and often arise as singularity models [18].

According to Pigola et al. [17], if we replace the constant λ in (1.4) and (1.5) with a smooth function
On one hand, in 1985, Oubina [15] introduced a new class of almost contact metric manifolds, known as trans-Sasakian manifolds. This class consists the Sasakian, the Kenmotsu and the cosymplectic structures. The properties of trans-Sasakian manifolds have been studied by several authors, like Blair [3] and Marrero [14]. %The trans-Sasakian manifolds arose in a natural way from the classification of almost contact metric structures and they appear as a natural generalization of both Sasakian and Kenmotsu manifolds The main goal of this paper is to characterize the three-dimensional trans-Sasakian manifolds equipped with gradient generalized quasi-Yamabe solitons, quasi-Yamabe metrics, and gradient generalized almost quasi-Yamabe metrics.

In [7] De and Sarkar proved that if a 3-dimensional trans-Sasakian
manifold is of constant curvature is compact and connected.
On the other hand, The classical theorem of de-Rham-Hodge asserts that the cohomology of an oriented closed Riemannian manifold can be represented by harmonic forms. The similar one still holds for an oriented compact Riemannian manifold with boundary by imposing certain boundary conditions, such as absolute and relative ones.
