RT Journal Article T1 On a nonlinear degenerate parabolic equation in infiltration or evaporation through a porous medium A1 Díaz Díaz, Jesús Ildefonso A1 Kersner, R. AB The main result of the paper is the uniqueness of nonnegative solutions of the Cauchy problem and of the first and mixed boundary value problems for a class of degenerate parabolic equations which includes the model equation ut=(um)xx+(un)x, where m≥1 and n>0. In particular, n is allowed to be smaller than one. The proof is based on a refined test function argument. The condition that u be nonnegative is crucial, but the restriction to one space variable is not.
