Abstract: We introduce and analyze a nonlocal version of the one-phase Stefan problem in which, as in the classical model, the rate of growth of the volume of the liquid phase is proportional to the rate at which energy is lost through the interphase. We prove existence and uniqueness for the problem posed on the line, and on the half-line with constant Dirichlet data, and in the radial case in several dimensions. We also describe the asymptotic behaviour of both the solution and its free boundary. The model may be of interest to describe the spreading of populations in hostile environments.
