We establish a point-wise gradient estimate for $all$ positive solutions of the conjugate heat equation. This contrasts to Perelman's point-wise gradient estimate which works mainly for the fundamental solution rather than all solutions.…
We present a notion of super Ricci flow for time-dependent finite weighted graphs. A challenging feature is that these flows typically encounter singularities where the underlying graph structure changes. Our notion is robust enough to…
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…
In this short note we obtain some local and global upper bounds for the Hessian of a positive solution to the conjugate heat equation coupled with the Ricci flow.
It is shown that, by appropriately defining the eigenfunctions of a function defined on the extended phase space, the Liouville theorem on solutions of the Hamilton--Jacobi equation can be formulated as the problem of finding common…
We consider chains consisting of several identical subsystems weakly coupled by various types of next neighbor interactions. At both ends the chain is coupled to a respective heat bath with different temperature modeled by a Lindblad…
In this article, we prove an $\epsilon$-regularity theorem for Perelman's reduced volume. We show that on a Ricci flow, if Perelman's reduced volume is close to $1$, then the curvature radius at the base point cannot be too small.
We are concerned with a super-Liouville equation on compact surfaces with genus larger than one, obtaining the first non-trivial existence result for this class of problems via min-max methods. In particular we make use of a Nehari manifold…
This paper is devoted to the derivation of expansion a associated with a discontinuous Sturm-Liouville problems defined on $[-\pi, 0)\cup(0,\pi]$. We derive an eigenfunction expansion theorem for the Green's function of the problem as well…
In this note, we answer affirmatively the question if a warped product of a compact manifold with a line as an ancient solution to the Ricci flow is trivial. We also consider the global behavior of the Type III warping product Ricci flow.
Liouville type theorems for the stationary Navier-Stokes equations are proven under certain assumptions. These assumptions are motivated by conditions that appear in Liouvile type theorems for the heat equations with a given divergence free…
In this paper we prove local results for solutions to the Ricci flow (heat flow) whose speed (height) is bounded by $\frac c t$ for some time interval $ t \in (0,T)$. These results are contained in chapter 7 of the author's habilitation…
In this paper, we establish a local gradient estimate for a $p$-Lpalacian equation with a fast growing gradient nonlinearity. With this estimate, we can prove a parabolic Liouville theorem for ancient solutions satisfying some growth…
In this paper, we show that any ancient solution to the Ricci flow with the reduced volume whose asymptotic limit is sufficiently close to that of the Gaussian soliton is isometric to the Euclidean space for all time. This is a…
We establish a Liouville type theorem for fully nonlinear uniformly elliptic equations in exterior domains in half spaces under quadratic boundary data and a quadratic growth condition, that is, any viscosity solution tends to a quadratic…
In \cite{LWZ}, we establish Liouville-type theorems and decay estimates for solutions of a class of high order elliptic equations and systems without the boundedness assumptions on the solutions. In this paper, we continue our work in…
Recently, Qi S.Zhang [26] has derived a sharp Li-Yau estimate for positive solutions of the heat equation on closed Riemannian manifolds with the Ricci curvature bounded below by a negative constant. The proof is based on an integral…
