We prove a constant rank theorem for the second fundamental form of the spatial convex level surfaces of solutions to equations ut = F (∇ 2 u, ∇u, u, t) under a structural condition, and give a geometric lower bound of the principal curvature of the spatial level surfaces.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
