Abstract: We prove that the energy dissipation property of gradient flows extends to the semigroup maximal operators in various settings. In particular, we show that the vertical maximal function relative to the $p$-parabolic extension does not increase the $dot{W}^{1,p}$ norm of $dot{W}^{1,p}(mathbb{R}^n)cap{L}^2(mathbb{R}^n)$ functions when $p>2$. We also obtain analogous results in the setting of uniformly parabolic and elliptic equations with bounded, measurable, real and symmetric coefficients, where the solutions do not have a representation formula via a convolution.
