    Let \(\Omega\subset \mathbb R^n\) be a bounded non-tangentially accessible domain. Let \(\Omega_T=\Omega\times(0,T)\) for some \(T>0\). In this very interesting paper, the authors study the boundary behaviour of non-negative solutions to the equation \[ Hu=\partial_tu-\partial_{x_i}(a_{ij}(x,t)\partial_{x_j}u)=0,\quad (x,t)\in \Omega_{T}, \] where \(a_{ij}(x,t)\) are measurable, real, symmetric and such that \[ \beta^{-1}\lambda(x)|\xi|^2\leq \sum_{i,j=1}^n a_{ij}\xi_i\xi_j\leq \beta \lambda(x)|\xi|^2 \] for any \((x,t)\in \mathbb R^{n+1},\xi \in \mathbb R^n\), where \(\lambda\) belongs to the Muckenhoupt class \(A_{1+2/n}(\mathbb R^n)\). The authors generalize previous results due to Fabes, Kenig, Jerison and Serapioni to a parabolic setting and prove the doubling property of the associated parabolic measure and the Hölder continuity up to the boundary of quotients of non-negative solutions which vanish continuously on a portion of the boundary.
