Abstract This paper derives elliptic gradient estimates for positive solutions to a nonlinear parabolic equation defined on a complete weighted Riemannian manifold. Applications of these estimates yield Liouville-type theorem, parabolic Harnack inequalities and bounds on weighted heat kernel on the lower boundedness assumption for Bakry-Émery curvature tensor.

AbstractThis article studies a nonlinear parabolic equation on a complete weighted manifold where the metric and potential evolve under a super Perelman-Ricci flow. It derives elliptic gradient estimates of local and global types for the positive solutions and exploits some of their implications notably to a general Liouville type theorem, parabolic Harnack inequalities and classes of Hamilton type dimension-free gradient estimates. Some examples and special cases are discussed for illustration.

Abstract In this paper, we establish local and global elliptic type gradient estimates for a nonlinear parabolic equation on a smooth metric measure space whose underlying metric and potential satisfy a ( k , m ) {(k,m)} -super Perelman–Ricci flow inequality. We discuss a number of applications and implications including curvature free global estimates and some constancy and Liouville type results.

Abstract We prove a Liouville-type theorem for two orthogonal complementary totally umbilical distributions on a complete Riemannian manifold with non-positive mixed scalar curvature. This is applied to some special types of complete doubly twisted and warped products of Riemannian manifolds.

We present a simple probability approach for establishing a gradient estimate for a solution of an elliptic equation on a compact Riemannian manifold with convex boundary, or on a noncompact complete manifold. Our method can also be applied to derive a similar gradient estimate for a nonlinear parabolic equation, and an abstract gradient estimate for a Markov semigroup.

We consider a parabolic equation driven by a nonlinear diffusive operator and we obtain a gradient estimate in the domain where the equation takes place. This estimate depends on the structural constants of the equation, on the geometry of the ambient space and on the initial and boundary data. As a byproduct, one easily obtains a universal interior estimate, not depending on the parabolic data. The setting taken into account includes sourcing terms and general diffusion coefficients. The results are new, to the best of our knowledge, even in the Euclidean setting, though we treat here also the case of a complete Riemannian manifold.
