Liouville theorem for subcritical nonlinear heat equation

Abstract

We obtain a Li-Yau-type estimate for nonnegative ancient solutions to the subcritical semilinear heat equation $\frac{\p u}{\p t}=\De u+u^p$ in $\rz^n\times(-\infty,0)$. Then, we combine the Li-Yau type estimate and Melre-Zaag's result to prove the Liouville theorem of this equation.
