Self-improving property of nonlinear higher order parabolic systems near the boundary (Q2268882): Difference between revisions

The object of study are higher order nonlinear parabolic systems, the prototype of which is \(u_t+(-1)^m\text{div}^m(|D^mu|^{p-2}D^mu)=0\), a system involving the higher order \(p\)-Laplacian. Initial and boundary values of suitable order are prescribed. Assuming that those are sufficiently regular, the authors prove higher integrability up to the boundary for weak solutions, i.e., \(D^mu\in L^{p+\varepsilon}\) instead of the natural \(L^p\)-integrability. The methods of proof build on DiBenedetto's idea of intrinsic scaling of parabolic cylinders. They continue the studies of local higher integrability started by \textit{J. Kinnunen} and \textit{J. L. Lewis} in [Duke Math. J. 102, No.~2, 253--271 (2000; Zbl 0994.35036)] which have been generalized for higher order in [\textit{V.~Bögelein}, Ann. Acad. Sci. Fenn., Math. 33, No.~2, 387--412 (2008; Zbl 1154.35013)].
