On the lifespan of classical solutions to a non-local porous medium problem with nonlinear boundary conditions
In this paper we analyze the porous medium equation

u_t=\Delta u^m + a\io u^p-b u^q -c\lvert\nabla\sqrt{u}\rvert^2 \quad
\textrm{in}\quad \Omega \times I,%\\ %u_\nu-g(u)=0 & \textrm{on}\; \partial
\Omega, t>0,\\ %u({\bf x},0)=u_0({\bf x})&{\bf x} \in \Omega,\\ %\end{cases}

constants are positive, proper real numbers larger than 1 and
the equation is complemented with nonlinear boundary conditions involving the
outward normal derivative of . Under some hypothesis on the data, including
intrinsic relations between and , and assuming that for some positive

(IBVP) associated to \eqref{ProblemAbstract} possesses a positive classical
solution u=u(\nx,t) on : \begin{itemize} \item

Well-posedness and gradient blow-up estimate near the boundary for a Hamilton-Jacobi equation with degenerate diffusion
This paper is concerned with weak solutions of the degenerate viscous
Hamilton-Jacobi equation with
Dirichlet boundary conditions in a bounded domain ,
where and . With the goal of studying the gradient blow-up
phenomenon for this problem, we first establish local well-posedness with
blow-up alternative in norm. We then obtain a precise gradient
estimate involving the distance to the boundary. It shows in particular that
the gradient blow-up can take place only on the boundary. A regularizing effect
for is also obtained.Comment: 20 pages 1 figur
