Gradient estimates and heat kernel estimates

Author(s):  
Zhongmin Qian

In the first part of this paper, Yau's estimates for positive L-harmonic functions and Li and Yau's gradient estimates for the positive solutions of a general parabolic heat equation on a complete Riemannian manifold are obtained by the use of Bakry and Emery's theory. In the second part we establish a heat kernel bound for a second-order differential operator which has a bounded and measurable drift, using Girsanov's formula.

AbstractOn a complete non-compact Riemannian manifold satisfying the volume doubling property, we give conditions on the negative part of the Ricci curvature that ensure that, unless there are harmonic 1-forms, the Gaussian heat kernel upper estimate on functions transfers to one-forms. These conditions do no entail any constraint on the size of the Ricci curvature, only on its decay at infinity.

We derive Harnack-type inequalities for non-negative solutions of the porous medium equation on a complete Riemannian manifold with non-negative Ricci curvature. Along with gradient estimates, reparametrization of a geodesic and time rescaling of a solution are key tools to get the results.
