We derive a matrix version of Li & Yau–type estimates for positive solutions of semilinear heat equations on Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative sectional curvatures and parallel Ricci tensor, similarly to what R. Hamilton did in [ 5 ] for the standard heat equation. We then apply these estimates to obtain some Harnack–type inequalities, which give local bounds on the solutions in terms of the geometric quantities involved.
