Abstract
As an application of his entropy formula, Perelman proved that every compact shrinking breather is a shrinking gradient Ricci soliton. We give a proof for the complete noncompact case by using Perelman's $\mathcal{L}$-geometry. Our proof follows the argument in Lu and Zheng of constructing an ancient solution, and removes a technical assumption made by them.
