Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of solutions of the Muskat equation with initial interface consisting of multiple corners allowing for linear growth at infinity. Specifically, we prove that if the initial data contains a finite set of small corners then we can find a precise description of the solution showing how these corners desingularize and move at the same time. At the analytical level, we are solving a small data critical problem which requires renormalization. This is accomplished using a nonlinear change of variables which serves as a logarithmic correction and accurately describes the motion of the corners during the evolution.
