We investigate self-similar solutions of the thin film equation in the case of zero contact angle boundary conditions on a finite domain. We prove existence and uniqueness of such a solution and determine the asymptotic behaviour as the exponent in the equation approaches the critical value at which zero contact angle boundary conditions become untenable. Numerical and power-series solutions are also presented.

<abstract><p>In this survey we present the state of the art about the asymptotic behavior and stability of the <italic>modified Mullins</italic>–<italic>Sekerka flow</italic> and the <italic>surface diffusion flow</italic> of smooth sets, mainly due to E. Acerbi, N. Fusco, V. Julin and M. Morini. First we discuss in detail the properties of the nonlocal Area functional under a volume constraint, of which the two flows are the gradient flow with respect to suitable norms, in particular, we define the <italic>strict stability</italic> property for a critical set of such functional and we show that it is a necessary and sufficient condition for minimality under $ W^{2, p} $–perturbations, holding in any dimension. Then, we show that, in dimensions two and three, for initial sets sufficiently "close" to a smooth <italic>strictly stable critical</italic> set $ E $, both flows exist for all positive times and asymptotically "converge" to a translate of $ E $.</p></abstract>
