description | Let (M,g) be an n dimensional complete Riemannian manifold.
In this article we prove local Li-Yau type gradient estimates for all positive
solutions to the nonlinear parabolic equation
$$
(\partial_t - \Delta_g + \mathcal{R}) u( x, t) = - a u( x, t) \log u( x, t)
$$
along the generalised geometric flow on M. Here
$\mathcal{R} = \mathcal{R} (x, t)$ is a smooth potential function and a
is an arbitrary constant. As an application we derive a global estimate and
a space-time Harnack inequality. |
