Abstract:
      In this paper, we study gradient estimates for the nonlinear heat equation $u_t-\triangle u=au\log u$, on compact Riemannian manifold with or without boundary. We get a Hamilton type gradient estimate for the positive smooth solution to the equation on close manifold, and obtain a Li-Yau type gradient estimate for the positive smooth solution to the equation on compact manifold with nonconvex boundary.
