A New Method to Deal with the Stability of the Weak Solutions for a Nonlinear Parabolic Equation

الملخص EN

Consider the nonlinear parabolic equation ∂u/∂t-div(a(x)|∇u|p-2∇u)=f(x,t,u,∇u) with axx∈Ω>0 and a(x)x∈∂Ω=0.

Though it is well known that the degeneracy of a(x) may cause the usual Dirichlet boundary value condition to be overdetermined, and only a partial boundary value condition is needed, since the nonlinearity, this partial boundary can not be depicted out by Fichera function as in the linear case.

A new method is introduced in the paper; accordingly, the stability of the weak solutions can be proved independent of the boundary value condition.
