In this paper, we establish the gradient and second derivative estimates for solutions to two kinds of parabolic Monge-Ampère equations in half-space under certain boundary data and growth condition. We also use such estimates to obtain the Liouville theorems for these two kinds of parabolic Monge-Ampère equations and one kind of elliptic Monge-Ampère equation.
