Abstract

In this paper we study the heat equation (of Hodge-Laplacian) deformation of (p,p)(p, p)-forms on a K\"ahler manifold. After identifying the condition and establishing that the positivity of a (p,p)(p, p)-form solution is preserved under such an invariant condition we prove the sharp differential Harnack (in the sense of Li-Yau-Hamilton) estimates for the positive solutions of the Hodge-Laplacian heat equation. We also prove a nonlinear version coupled with the K\"ahler-Ricci flow and some interpolating matrix differential Harnack type estimates for both the K\"ahler-Ricci flow and the Ricci flow.
