<p style='text-indent:20px;'>In this paper, the initial-boundary value problem for a class of fourth-order nonlinear parabolic equations modeling the epitaxial growth of thin films is studied. By means of the theory of potential wells, the global existence, asymptotic behavior and finite time blow-up of weak solutions are obtained.</p>

A two dimensional model of a tabular reactor with the catalytically active wall has been proposed in which several exothermic catalytic reactions take place. The derived dimensionless equations enable evaluation of concentration and temperature profiles on the surface of the active component. The resulting nonlinear parabolic equations have been solved by the method of orthogonal collocations.

AbstractIn this article we prove a Harnack inequality for non-negative weak solutions to doubly nonlinear parabolic equations of the form $$\begin{aligned} \partial _t u - {{\,\mathrm{div}\,}}{\mathbf {A}}(x,t,u,Du^m) = {{\,\mathrm{div}\,}}F, \end{aligned}$$ ∂ t u - div A ( x , t , u , D u m ) = div F , where the vector field $${\mathbf {A}}$$ A fulfills p-ellipticity and growth conditions. We treat the slow diffusion case in its full range, i.e. all exponents $$m > 0$$ m > 0 and $$p>1$$ p > 1 with $$m(p-1) > 1$$ m ( p - 1 ) > 1 are included in our considerations.

Abstract We consider a Cauchy problem for nonlinear parabolic equations with functional dependence. We prove convergence theorems for a general quasilinearization method in two cases: (i) the Hale functional acting only on the unknown function, (ii) including partial derivatives of the unknown function.

Abstract This paper is concerned with the positivity of solutions to the Cauchy problem for linear and nonlinear parabolic equations with the biharmonic operator as fourth order elliptic principal part. Generally, Cauchy problems for parabolic equations of fourth order have no positivity preserving property due to the change of sign of the fundamental solution. One has eventual local positivity for positive initial data, but on short time scales, one will in general have also regions of negativity. The first goal of this paper is to find sufficient conditions on initial data which ensure the existence of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the linear biharmonic heat equation which are positive for all times and in the whole space. The second goal is to apply these results to show existence of globally positive solutions to the Cauchy problem for a semilinear biharmonic parabolic equation.
