Asymptotic finite solutions of degenerate quasilinear parabolic equations with small diffusion (Q1178079)

The goal of this paper is to present an algorithm for constructing formal localized (finite) solutions of quasilinear parabolic equations \[ \partial u/\partial t-\varepsilon\langle\nabla,K(x,t,u)\nabla u\rangle- F(x,t,u)=0, \] where \(\varepsilon\) is a small parameter, \(x\in R^ n\), \(n>1\), \(K(x,t,u)\) and \(F(x,t,u)\) are smooth functions that are positive for \(u>0\), \(K(x,t,u)\sim u^{k-1}\), \(u\to 0\), \(k>1\), \(F(x,t,u)\sim u^ q\), \(q\geq 1\). Some stabilization conditions are assumed for \(K\) and \(F\) as well as a continuity condition for the flow. This is a generalization of some previous author's works.
