It is well known that generic solutions of the heat equation are not analytic in time in general. Here it is proven that ancient solutions with exponential growth are analytic in time in ${\M} \times (-\infty, 0]$. Here $\M=\R^n$ or is a…
We prove an $L^2$ estimate for the drift heat equation on a complete gradient shrinking Ricci soliton. This estimate has a time-dependent weight which is Gaussian in its spatial asymptotics. When transferred and scaled to an estimate for…
We prove the analyticity in time for solutions of two parabolic equations in the whole space, without any decaying or vanishing conditions. One of them involves solutions to the heat equation of exponential growth of order $2$ on $\M$. Here…

The existence of smooth but nowhere analytic functions is well-known (du Bois-Reymond, Math. Ann., 21(1):109-117, 1883). However, smooth solutions to the heat equation are usually analytic in the space variable. It is also well-known…
We show that gradient shrinking, expanding or steady Ricci solitons have potentials leading to suitable reference probability measures on the manifold. For shrinking solitons, as well as expanding soltions with nonnegative Ricci curvature,…
We prove that any gradient shrinking Ricci soliton has at most Euclidean volume growth. This improves a recent result of H.-D. Cao and D. Zhou by removing a condition on the growth of scalar curvature.
In this paper, we investigate the pointwise time analyticity of three differential equations. They are the biharmonic heat equation, the heat equation with potentials and some nonlinear heat equations with power nonlinearity of order $p$.…
We study the Ricci-Bourguignon flow on warped product manifolds with noncompact base. This setting leads naturally to a parabolic partial differential equation on the space of smooth warping functions, arising from the necessary and…
We develop heat kernel and Green's function estimates for manifolds with positive bottom spectrum. The results are then used to establish existence and sharp estimates of the solution to the Poisson equation on such manifolds with Ricci…
In this paper, we investigate pointwise time analyticity of solutions to fractional heat equations in the settings of $\mathbb{R}^d$ and a complete Riemannian manifold $\mathrm{M}$. On one hand, in $\mathbb{R}^d$, we prove that any solution…
We study integral and pointwise bounds on the curvature of gradient shrinking Ricci solitons. As applications we discuss gap and compactness results for gradient shrinkers.
In this paper, we first apply an integral identity on Ricci solitons to prove that closed locally conformally flat gradient Ricci solitons are of constant sectional curvature. We then generalize this integral identity to complete noncompact…
We prove the time analyticity for weak solutions of inhomogeneous parabolic equations with measurable coefficients in the half space with either the Dirichlet boundary condition or the conormal boundary condition under the assumption that…
We derive localized and global noncompact versions of Hamilton's gradient estimate for positive solutions to the heat equation on Riemannian manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded below. Our estimates are essentially optimal and…
An explicit representation formula for all positive ancient solutions of the heat equation in the Euclidean case is found. In the Riemannian case with nonnegative Ricci curvature, a similar but less explicit formula is also found. Here it…
We show that the linear trace Harnack quadratic on a steady gradient Ricci soliton satisfies the heat equation. Similar result holds for shrinkers. We also present an interpolation between Perelman's and Cao--Hamilton's Harnacks on a steady…
We show that any locally conformally flat ancient solution to the Ricci flow must be rotationally symmetric. As a by-product, we prove that any locally conformally flat Ricci soliton is a gradient soliton in the shrinking and steady cases…
In this paper, we study quantitative spatial analytic bounds and unique continuation inequalities of solutions for fractional heat equations with an analytic lower order term on the whole space. At first, we show that the solution has a…
