We investigate the boundedness and large time behavior of solutions of the Cauchy-Dirichlet problem for the one-dimensional degenerate parabolic equation with gradient nonlinearity: $$ u_t = (|u-x|^{p-2} u-x)_x+|u_x|^q \qquad \text{in}\quad…

In the presence of vacuum, the physical entropy for polytropic gases behaves singularly and it is thus a challenge to study its dynamics. It is shown in this paper that the boundedness of the entropy can be propagated up to any finite time…

The entropy is one of the fundamental states of a fluid and, in the viscous case, the equation that it satisfies is highly singular in the region close to the vacuum. In spite of its importance in the gas dynamics, the mathematical analyses…

We consider nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws, posed on a differential (n+1)-manifold with boundary referred to as a spacetime, and in which the "flux" is defined as a flux field of n-forms depending on a parameter (the unknown…
We show non-existence of solutions of the Cauchy problem in $\mathbb{R}^N$ for the nonlinear parabolic equation involving fractional diffusion $\partial_t u + (-\Delta)^s \phi(u)= 0,$ with $0<s<1$ and very singular nonlinearities $\phi$ .…
