Abstract

We consider the so-called \emph{discrete pp-Laplacian}, a nonlinear difference operator that acts on functions defined on the nodes of a possibly infinite graph. We study the associated nonlinear Cauchy problem and identify the generator of the associated nonlinear semigroups. We prove higher order time regularity of the solutions. We investigate the long-time behavior of the solutions and discuss in particular finite extinction time and conservation of mass. Namely, on one hand, for small pp if an infinite graph satisfies some isoperimetric inequality, then the solution to the parabolic pp-Laplace equation vanishes in finite time; on the other hand, for large p,p, these parabolic pp-Laplace equations always enjoy conservation of mass.
