Hamilton-type gradient estimates for a nonlinear parabolic equation on Riemannian manifolds (Q546355)

Let \((M,g)\) be a complete noncompact Riemannian manifold. The author derives a local Hamilton-type gradient estimate for positive solutions to the nonlinear parabolic equation \[ \partial_t u = \Delta u + au \log u + qu\quad \text{on}\;M \times (0,\infty), \] where \(a\) is a constant and \(q\) is a \(C^{2}\) function. Hamilton-type gradient estimates are obtained for the Schrödinger equation as well.
