Abstract:Due to the fact that in a metric space there is (in general) no notion of directional derivatives, the definition of solutions to gradient flows in metric measure spaces necessarily avoid their direct use. The most classical example is the heat flow, or more generally the p‐Laplacian evolution equation, which has been studied as the gradient flow in L2 of the p‐Cheeger energy. Typically, solutions are defined using the semigroup theory through a subdifferential of the energy. Other popular approaches include v… Show more
