A gradient estimate to a degenerate parabolic equation with a singular absorption term: The global quenching phenomena

We prove global existence of nonnegative solutions to the one dimensional degenerate parabolic problems containing a singular term. We also show the global quenching phenomena for L1 initial datums. Moreover, the free boundary problem is considered in this paper.

Quenching phenomenon of singular parabolic problems with L1 initial data

We extend some previous existence results for quenching type parabolic problems involving a negative power of the unknown in the equation to the case of merely integrable initial data. We show that L1 Ω is the suitable framework to obtain the continuous dependence with respect to some norm of the initial datum; This way we answer to the question raised by several authors in the previous literature. We also show the complete quenching phenomena for such a L1-initial datum.

Strictly singular operators in pairs of L (p) space

Let E and F be Banach spaces. A linear operator from E to F is said to be strictly singular if, for any subspace Q aS, E, the restriction of A to Q is not an isomorphism. A compactness criterion for any strictly singular operator from L (p) to L (q) is found. There exists a strictly singular but not superstrictly singular operator on L (p) , provided that p not equal 2.
