On an over-determined problem of free boundary of a degenerate parabolic equation
This work is concerned with the inverse problem of determining initial value of the Cauchy problem for a nonlinear diffusion process with an additional condition on free boundary. Considering the flow of water through a homogeneous isotropic rigid porous medium, we have such desire: for every given positive constants and , to decide the initial value such that the solution satisfies , where . In this paper, we first establish a priori estimate and a more precise Poincaré type inequality...
