Review text

The authors consider parabolic problems of the form \[ \begin{cases} u_t= h(x,t,u,|\nabla u|^2)\Delta u,\quad (x,t)\in\Omega\times (0,T),\\ u= 0\quad\text{on }\partial\Omega,\\ u(x,0)= g(x).\end{cases}\tag{P} \] They construct optimal sub- or supersolutions of the form \(v(x,t)= \phi(\sigma(x), t)\), where \(\phi(\sigma,t)\) is the solution of the one-dimensional version of (P) and \(\sigma(x)= \sqrt{\psi_{\max}- \psi(x)}\), \(\psi(x)\) being the torsion function, i.e. the solution of \(\Delta\psi+ 2=0\) in \(\Omega\), \(\psi=0\) on \(\partial\Omega\).
