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.engOn a nonlinear degenerate parabolic equation in infiltration or evaporation through a porous mediumjournal articlehttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/0022039687901252restricted access517.956.4Dirichlet boundary conditionsinitial datainfiltrationevaporationporous mediumexistence of limit solutionsweak solutionsmodulus of continuityuniquenessGeometría diferencial1204.04 Geometría Diferencial
