On the propagation properties of a nonlinear degenerate parabolic equation

MA Herrero, JL Vazquez - Communications in Partial Differential …, 1982 - Taylor & Francis
This paper studies the Cauchy problem for the equation with initial condition: for x BR: Here
m is a constant, 0< m< m. For m= 1,(0.1) is the classical heat equation. If m# 1,(0.1) appears …

The characterization of reaction-convection-diffusion processes by travelling waves

BH Gilding, R Kersner - Journal of differential equations, 1996 - Elsevier
It has long been known that the heat equation displays infinite speed of propagation. This is
to say that if the initial data are nonnegative and have nonempty compact support, the …

The one-dimensional nonlinear heat equation with absorption: Regularity of solutions and interfaces

MA Herrero, JL Vázquez - SIAM journal on mathematical analysis, 1987 - SIAM
We consider the equation u_t=(u^m)_xx-λu^n with m>1, λ>0, n\geqqm as a model for heat
diffusion with absorption. Hence we assume that u\geqq0 for x∈R, t\geqq0. We study the …
