Abstract: We characterize all the solutions of the heat equation that have their (spatial) equipotential surfaces which do not vary with the time. Such solutions are either isoparametric or split in space-time. The result gives a final answer to a problem raised by M. S. Klamkin, extended by G. Alessandrini, and that was named the Matzoh Ball Soup Problem by L. Zalcman. Similar results can also be drawn for a class of quasi-linear parabolic partial differential equations with coefficients which are homogeneous functions of the gradient variable. This class contains the (isotropic or anisotropic) evolution p-Laplace and normalized p-Laplace equations.
