Abstract
We prove the Bochner–Weitzenböck formula for the (nonlinear) Laplacian on general Finsler manifolds and derive Li–Yau type gradient estimates as well as parabolic Harnack inequalities. Moreover, we deduce Bakry–Émery gradient estimates. All these estimates depend on lower bounds for the weighted flag Ricci tensor.
