Gradient estimates for the nonlinear parabolic equation with two exponents on Riemannian manifolds

Abstract: In this paper, we study the nonlinear parabolic equation with two exponents on complete noncompact Riemannian maniflods. The special types of such equation include the Fisher-KPP equation, the parabolic Allen-Cahn equation and the Newell-Whitehead equation. We get the Souplet-Zhang's gradeint estimates for the positive solutions to such equation. We also obtain the Liouville theorem for positive ancient solutions. Our results extend those of Souplet-Zhang (Bull. London. Math. Soc. 38:1045-1053, 2006) and Zhu (Acta Mathematica Scientia 36B(2): 514-526, 2016).
