Hölder regularity for parabolic fractional p-Laplacian.

Local Hölder regularity is established for certain weak solutions to a class of parabolic fractional p-Laplace equations with merely measurable kernels. The proof uses DeGiorgi's iteration and refines DiBenedetto's intrinsic scaling method. The control of a nonlocal integral of solutions in the reduction of oscillation plays a crucial role and entails delicate analysis in this intrinsic scaling scenario. Dispensing with any logarithmic estimate and any comparison principle, the proof is new even for the linear case.

Continuity of the temperature in a multi-phase transition problem.

Locally bounded, local weak solutions to a doubly nonlinear parabolic equation, which models the multi-phase transition of a material, is shown to be locally continuous. Moreover, an explicit modulus of continuity is given. The effect of the p-Laplacian type diffusion is also considered.
