Popis: We discuss first-order and second-order regularization effects for solutions to the classical heat equation. In particular we propose a global approach to study smoothing effects of Hamilton-Li-Yau type: such approach is nonlinear in spirit and it is based on the Bernstein method and duality techniques \`a la Evans. In a similar way, we also deal with the conservation of geometric properties for the heat flow as initiated by Brascamp-Lieb. In contrast to maximum principle methods based on sup-norm procedures, the integral method we adopt relies on contractivity properties for advection-diffusion equations and it applies to problems with homogeneous Neumann conditions posed equally on bounded and unbounded convex domains under suitable assumptions on their geometry.
