Abstract

This paper is concerned with power concavity properties of the solution to the parabolic boundary value problem \begin{equation} \tag{PP} \left\{\begin{array}{ll} \partial_t u=\Delta u +f(x,t,u,\nabla u) & \mbox{in}\quad\Omega\times(0,\infty),\vspace{3pt}\\ u(x,t)=0 & \mbox{on}\quad\partial \Omega\times(0,\infty),\vspace{3pt}\\ u(x,0)=0 & \mbox{in}\quad\Omega, \end{array} \right. \end{equation} where Ω\Omega is a bounded convex domain in Rn{\bf R}^n and ff is a nonnegative continuous function in Ω×(0,)×R×Rn\Omega\times(0,\infty)\times{\bf R}\times{\bf R}^n. We give a sufficient condition for the solution of (P)(P) to be parabolically power concave in Ωˉ×[0,)\bar{\Omega}\times[0,\infty).
