We present two approaches to the heat flow on a Finsler manifold $(M,F)$: either as gradient flow on $L^2(M,m)$ for the energy; or as gradient flow on the reverse $L^2$-Wasserstein space $\mathcal{P}_2(M)$ of probability measures on $M$ for…
We generalize the Li-Yau inequality for second derivatives and we also establish Li-Yau type inequality for fourth derivatives. Our derivation relies on the representation formula for the heat equation.
