Vector-valued heat equations and networks with coupled dynamic boundary conditions

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Motivated by diffusion processes on metric graphs and ramified spaces, we consider an abstract setting for interface problems with coupled dynamic boundary conditions belonging to a quite general class. Beside well-posedness, we discuss positivity, Linfty-contractivity and further invariance properties. We show that the parabolic problem with dynamic boundary conditions enjoy these properties if and only if so does its counterpart with time-independent boundary conditions. Furthermore, we prove continuous dependence of the solution to the parabolic problem on the boundary conditions in the considered class.


The author considers an abstract setting for interface problems with coupled dynamic boundary conditions. This problem is motivated by recent results on diffusion processes on metric graphs and ramified spaces. The author proves that the parabolic problem enjoys \(L^\infty\)-contractivity, positivity and a suitable invariance property if and only if its counterpart with time independent boundary conditions also does. The author also proves the continuous dependence of the solution on the boundary conditions.
