Gradient estimates for some evolution equations on complete smooth metric measure spaces
In this paper, we consider the following general evolution equation $$ u_t=\Delta_fu+au\log^\alpha u+bu $$ on smooth metric measure spaces $(M^n, g, e^{-f}dv)$. We give a local gradient estimate of Souplet-Zhang type for positive smooth solution of this equation provided that the Bakry-\'{E}mery curvature bounded from below. When $f$ is constant, we investigate the gereral evolution on compact Riemannian manifolds with no nconvex boundary satisfying an "\emph{interior rolling $R$-ball}" condition. We show a gradient estimate of Hamilton type on such manifolds.
