Abstract
In studying the long term behavior of solutions of parabolic equations and systems, in particular in the analysis of singularities, a basic step is always to obtain a priori estimates. These can be integral or pointwise; the main tool in order to get these latter is the maximum principle, in particular in the context of mean curvature flow.
