Abstract:
In this talk, we consider parabolic systems of $p$-Laplace type \begin{equation*} \partial_tu-\Div\Big( a(x,t)\big(\mu^2+|Du|^2\big)^\frac{p-2}2Du\Big)=0 \qquad\mbox{in $E_T$}, \end{equation*} where $p>1$, $\mu\in[0,1]$, and the coefficient $a\in L^\infty(E_T)$ is bounded below by a positive constant and H\older continuous with respect to the spatial variable $x$. Via Schauder estimates we establish local H\older continuity of the spatial gradient of bounded weak solutions. As an application, we derive H\older estimates for the gradient of weak solutions to a doubly nonlinear parabolic equation in the supercritical fast diffusion regime. In particular, we obtain quantitative bounds for the spatial gradient and its H\older continuity. This is joint work with F.~Duzaar, U.~Gianazza, N.~Liao, and C.~Scheven.
