Abstract

This paper is concerned with quasi-linear parabolic equations driven by an additive forc- ing [...], in the full subcritical regime [...]. We are inspired by Hairer’s regularity structures, however we work with a more parsimonious model indexed by multi-indices rather than trees. This allows us to capture additional symmetries which play a crucial role in our analysis. Assuming bounds on this model, which is modified in agreement with the concept of algebraic renormalization, we prove local a priori estimates on solutions to the quasi-linear equations modi- fied by the corresponding counter-terms.
