Abstract: We use Nash’s inequality and a Moser-type iteration
to obtain a fundamental supnorm estimate for solutions of the Cauchy problem for
second-order quasilinear parabolic equations in general heterogeneous media,
under some requirements on the viscosity tensor and the advection velocity
field. Initial states are assumed in for some
