Abstract: | The existence, uniqueness and regularity of viscosity solutions to the Cauchy–Dirichlet problem are proved for a degenerate nonlinear parabolic equation of the form , where denotes the so-called infinity-Laplacian given by . To do so, a coercive regularization of the equation is introduced and barrier function arguments are also employed to verify the equi-continuity of approximate solutions. Furthermore, the Cauchy problem is also studied by using the preceding results on the Cauchy–Dirichlet problem. Dedicated to the memory of our friend Kyoji Takaichi.
