In the first part of this paper, we prove local interior and boundary gradient estimates for p-harmonic functions on general Riemannian manifolds. With these estimates, following the strategy in recent work of R. Moser, we prove an existence theorem for weak solutions to the level set formulation of the 1/H (inverse mean curvature) flow for hypersurfaces in ambient manifolds satisfying a sharp volume growth assumption. In the second part of this paper, we consider two parabolic analogues of the p-Laplace equation and prove sharp Li-Yau type gradient estimates for positive solutions to these equations on manifolds of nonnegative Ricci curvature. For one of these equations, we also prove an entropy monotonicity formula generalizing an earlier such formula of the second author for the linear heat equation. As an application of this formula, we show that a complete Riemannian manifold with non-negative Ricci curvature and sharp L^p-logarithmic Sobolev inequality must be isometric to Euclidean space.

We describe the behavior of p-harmonic Greens functions near a singularity in metric measure spaces equipped with a doubling measure and supporting a Poincare inequality.
Families of hypersurfaces that are level-set families of harmonic functions free of critical points are characterized by a local differential-geometric condition. Harmonic functions with a specified level-set family are constructed from geometric dat
a. As a by-product, it is shown that the evolution of the gradient of a harmonic function along the gradient flow is determined by the mean curvature of the level sets that the flow intersects.
This paper is focused on the local interior $W^{1,infty}$-regularity for weak solutions of degenerate elliptic equations of the form $text{div}[mathbf{a}(x,u, abla u)] +b(x, u, abla u) =0$, which include those of $p$-Laplacian type. We derive an ex
plicit estimate of the local $L^infty$-norm for the solutions gradient in terms of its local $L^p$-norm. Specifically, we prove begin{equation*} | abla u|_{L^infty(B_{frac{R}{2}}(x_0))}^p leq frac{C}{|B_R(x_0)|}int_{B_R(x_0)}| abla u(x)|^p dx. end{equation*} This estimate paves the way for our forthcoming work in establishing $W^{1,q}$-estimates (for $q>p$) for weak solutions to a much larger class of quasilinear elliptic equations.
We establish precise upper and lower bounds for the subelliptic heat kernel on nilpotent Lie groups $G$ of H-type. Specifically, we show that there exist positive constants $C_1$, $C_2$ and a polynomial correction function $Q_t$ on $G$ such that $$C_
1 Q_t e^{-frac{d^2}{4t}} le p_t le C_2 Q_t e^{-frac{d^2}{4t}}$$ where $p_t$ is the heat kernel, and $d$ the Carnot-Caratheodory distance on $G$. We also obtain similar bounds on the norm of its subelliptic gradient $| abla p_t|$. Along the way, we record explicit formulas for the distance function $d$ and the subriemannian geodesics of H-type groups.
We derive a priori second order estimates for fully nonlinear elliptic equations which depend on the gradients of solutions in critical ways on Hermitian manifolds. The global estimates we obtained apply to an equation arising from a conjecture by Ga
uduchon which extends the Calabi conjecture; this was one of the original motivations to this work. We were also motivated by the fact that there had been increasing interests in fully nonlinear pdes from complex geometry in recent years, and aimed to develop general methods to cover as wide a class of equations as possible.
