    The paper is devoted to a study of the parabolic Allen-Cahn equation on a closed \(n\)-dimensional manifold. First, in the introduction, the author gives a rather detailed analysis of the existing literature. Here, he also formulates the basic result of the work (Theorem 1.2) and indicates the place of this result among the similar ones. The main goal of the work is to use geometric methods to obtain a Harnack inequality for the solution to the above-mentioned equation. The techniques implemented in the paper work only for positive solutions and cannot be applied to the elliptic equation. However, the author formally compares the standing wave solution to Modica's gradient estimates and shows that they have similar polynomial bounds.
