Abstract

We establish the local continuity of locally bounded weak solutions (temperatures) to the doubly singular parabolic equation modeling the phase transition of a material: tβ(u)Δpu0 for 2NN+1<p<2, \partial_t \beta(u)-\Delta_p u\ni 0\quad\text{ for }\tfrac{2N}{N+1}<p<2, where β\beta is a maximal monotone graph with a jump at zero and Δp\Delta_p is the pp-Laplacian. Moreover, a logarithmic type modulus of continuity is quantified, which has been conjectured to be optimal.
