Degenerate parabolic equations in divergence form: fundamental solution and Gaussian bounds

Abstract

In this paper, we consider second order degenerate parabolic equations with complex, measurable, and time-dependent coefficients. The degenerate ellipticity is dictated by a spatial A2-weight. We prove that having a generalized fundamental solution with upper Gaussian bounds is equivalent to Moser’s L2-L∞ estimates for local weak solutions. In the special case of real coefficients, Moser's L2-L∞ estimates are known, which provide an easier proof of Gaussian upper bounds, and a known Harnack inequality is then used to derive Gaussian lower bounds.

AB  - In this paper, we consider second order degenerate parabolic equations with complex, measurable, and time-dependent coefficients. The degenerate ellipticity is dictated by a spatial A_2-weight. We prove that having a generalized fundamental solution with upper Gaussian bounds is equivalent to Moser’s L^2-L^∞ estimates for local weak solutions. In the special case of real coefficients, Moser's L^2-L^∞ estimates are known, which provide an easier proof of Gaussian upper bounds, and a known Harnack inequality is then used to derive Gaussian lower bounds.
