Gradient estimates for harmonic functions on regular domains in Riemannian manifolds
by Anton Thalmaier and Feng-Yu Wang

Derivative formulae for heat semigroups are used to give gradient estimates for harmonic functions on regular domains in Riemannian manifolds. This probabilistic method provides an alternative to coupling methods, as introduced by Cranston, and allows to improve some known estimates. We discuss two slightly different ways to exploit derivative formulae where each one should be interesting by itself.
