On solutions of a parabolic equation with nonstandard growth condition (Q2189657)

The author studies initial-boundary value problem of a parabolic equation with nonstandard growth condition. The important and trendy tool is the variable exponent \(p(x)\). The existence of solutions is proved by a parabolically regularized method. The stability of weak solutions is based on a natural partial boundary value condition. Two novelty elements of the paper are both the dependence of diffusion coefficient \(b(x,t)\) dependent on the time variable \(t\), and the partial boundary value condition based on a submanifold of \(\partial \Omega \times (0,T).\)
