- MEAN VALUE INEQUALITY FOR SOLUTIONS OF HEAT EQUATIONS 313
Note that
87/Ji 2i 2i+l
(25.32) 0 < - < - and l\77/Jilg-S -.
- ar - T5 To
Here \77/Ji is a C^00 vector field on the complement of the cut locus of xo (the
cut locus is a closed set with measure zero).
We then have
supp('t/Ji) C Pri' 7/Ji = 1 on Pri+i"
Moreover, by (25.32) and 7/Ji :::; 1, we have
(25.33) 7/Ji ~~i + l\77/Jil~ S 4i+^2 T 02 ~Li.
Now we may take 'ljJ = 7/Ji in Step 2.
Corresponding to (25.27), define

By (25.28), with T =Ti, T^1 = Ti+l, p =Pi, and M =Mi, we have (note that
Pi+l = n~^2 Pi)

where we used the fact that Ti :::; 2To and (25.8) imply B (xo, 4To) c D.
Hence, for any integer j 2 2

Taking the limit as j-+ oo, we have
