In this short note, we prove that $\alpha$-concavity of the pressure is not preserved for the porous medium equation in dimensions $n=3$ and higher for any $\alpha\in [0,1]\backslash \{\frac{1}{2}\}$. Together with the result of…
We construct examples for the one-phase Stefan problem which show that $\alpha$-concavity of the solution is in general not preserved in time, for $0 \le \alpha <1/2$. In particular, this shows that, in contrast to the case of the heat…

This article is concerned with a porous medium equation whose pressure law is both nonlinear and nonlocal, namely $\partial_t u = { \nabla \cdot} \left(u \nabla(-\Delta)^{\frac{\alpha}{2}-1}u^{m-1} \right)$ where $u:\mathbb{R}_+\times…

The problem of the flow trough a porous media is formulated in terms of a pressure equation, based on arguments of volume conservation which state the mechanical equilibrium between the solid and the fluid phases. In the resulting governing…
