An Improvement on Discrete Li–Yau Inequality

Bin Shen , Yuhan Zhu

pp. 75-84

Abstract

In this paper, we study the discrete Li–Yau gradient estimates for the positive solutions u to the heat equation on graphs under $CDE(n,-K)$ condition and derive a sharper estimate than Bauer et al. (J. Differ. Geom. 99(3), 359–405 2015) and Wang and Zhang (Comm. Anal. Geom. 27(4), 969–989 2019).
