A priori gradient bounds for fully nonlinear parabolic equations and applications to porous medium models (Q2344551): Difference between revisions

This paper is concerned with the derivation of an a priori \(L^\infty\) bound on the gradient of \(C^3\) classical solutions to fully nonlinear degenerate parabolic equations. The evolution is considered to be on the torus and the method involves constructing an equation for the length of the gradient which is treated in the viscosity sense. As an application of the main theorem, the authors establish a bound for the relevant equations.
