Abstract: | Let M be a compact Riemannian manifold without boundary. Consider the porous media equation , u(0)=u0∈Lq, ? being the Laplace-Beltrami operator. Then, if q?2∨(m-1), the associated evolution is Lq-L∞ regularizing at any time t>0 and the bound ‖u(t)‖∞?C(u0)/tβ holds for t<1 for suitable explicit C(u0),γ. For large t it is shown that, for general initial data, u(t) approaches its time-independent mean with quantitative bounds on the rate of convergence. Similar bounds are valid when the manifold is not compact, but u(t) approaches u≡0 with different asymptotics. The case of manifolds with boundary and homogeneous Dirichlet, or Neumann, boundary conditions, is treated as well. The proof stems from a new connection between logarithmic Sobolev inequalities and the contractivity properties of the nonlinear evolutions considered, and is therefore applicable to a more abstract setting. |
