Abstract

In this work, we show existence and uniqueness of positive solutions of H(Du,D2u)+χ(t)DuΓf(u)ut=H(Du, D^2u)+\chi(t)|Du|^\Gamma-f(u)u_t= in Ω×(0,T)\Omega\times(0, T) and u=hu=h on its parabolic boundary. The operator HH satisfies certain homogeneity conditions, Γ>0\Gamma>0 and depends on the degree of homogeneity of HH, f>0f>0, increasing and meets a concavity condition. We also consider the case f1f\equiv 1 and prove existence of solutions without sign restrictions.
