Regularity results for linear parabolic equations on Carnot tori via mollifier kernel construction
Abstract
This paper first proves the existence, uniqueness and regularity of the solution to a class of linear backward parabolic equations on Carnot tori, namely the periodic linear parabolic equation on Carnot groups. Such groups are non-commutative and typical examples of sub-Riemannian manifolds. Moreover, we apply the results for this equation to its dual equation (i.e., the Fokker-Planck-Kolmogorov equation in the general form), and derive the existence, uniqueness and regularity of its weak solution. To obtain the regularity results for solutions to the linear parabolic equation and its dual equation, firstly, we construct several families of mollifiers adapted respectively to the H\"{o}rmander vector fields generating Carnot groups, Carnot tori and dual spaces of non-isotropic H\"{o}lder spaces; secondly, we use the theory of singular integral operators to establish stronger a priori regularity for the solutions.
