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 $$u_t = \Delta_\infty u$$ , where $$\Delta_\infty$$ denotes the so-called infinity-Laplacian given by $$\Delta_\infty u = \langle D^2 u Du, Du \rangle$$ . 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. The research of the first author was partially supported by Waseda University Grant for Special Research Projects, #2004A-366.
