We consider in this paper a perturbation of the standard semilinear heat equation by a term involving the space derivative and a non-local term. In some earlier works [1, 2], we constructed a solution $u$ for that equation such that $u$ and…

Let $L_t:=\Delta_t+Z_t$ for a $C^{1,1}$-vector field $Z$ on a differential manifold $M$ with boundary $\partial M$, where $\Delta_t$ is the Laplacian induced by a time dependent metric $g_t$ differentiable in $t\in [0,T_c)$. We first…

We make explicit the $p$-dependence of $C$ in the gradient estimate $\left\Vert \nabla u\right\Vert _{\infty}^{p-1}\leq C\left\Vert f\right\Vert _{N,1}$ by Cianchi and Maz'ya (2011). In such inequality, the constant $C$ is uniform with…
