Gradient estimate and Liouville theorem for a semilinear parabolic equation with variable coefficient

In this paper, we investigate the semilinear parabolic equation $\partial_t f-\Delta f=a(x,t)f^p$ on a complete Riemannian manifold with Ricci curvature bounded from below. By means of Nash-Moser iteration, we establish Li-Yau type gradient estimates for positive solutions to this equation, where the coefficient functi...
