Regularity for degenerate evolution equations with strong absorption

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: In this manuscript, we study geometric regularity estimates for degenerate parabolic equations of p-Laplacian type (2leqp<infty) under a strong absorption condition: Deltapu−fracpartialupartialt=lambda0u+qquadmboxinquadOmegaTdefeqOmegaimes(0,T), where 0leqq<1 and lambda0 is a function bounded away from zero and infinity. This model is interesting because it yields the formation of dead-core sets, i.e, regions where non-negative solutions vanish identically. We shall prove sharp and improved parabolic Calpha regularity estimates along the set mathfrakF0(u,OmegaT)=partialu>0capOmegaT (the free boundary), where alpha=fracpp−1−qgeq1+frac1p−1. Some weak geometric and measure theoretical properties as non-degeneracy, positive density, porosity and finite speed of propagation are proved. As an application, we prove a Liouville-type result for entire solutions provided their growth at infinity can be appropriately controlled. A specific analysis for Blow-up type solutions will be done as well. The results obtained in this article via our approach are new even for dead-core problems driven by the heat operator.
