Singularity analysis for a class of porous medium equation with time-dependent coefficients (Q1796559)

Summary: This paper concerns the singularity and global regularity for the porous medium equation with time-dependent coefficients under homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. Firstly, some global regularity results are established. Furthermore, we investigate the blow-up solution to the boundary value problem. The upper and lower estimates to the lifespan of the singular solution are also obtained here.
