The relation between the porous medium and the eikonal equations in several space dimensions.

Pierre-Louis Lions, Panagiotis E. Souganidis, Juan Luis Vázquez (1987)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

We study the relation between the porous medium equation ut = Δ(um), m > 1, and the eikonal equation vt = |Dv|2. Under quite general assumtions, we prove that the pressure and the interface of the solution of the Cauchy problem for the porous medium equation converge as m↓1 to the viscosity solution and the interface of the Cauchy problem for the eikonal equation. We also address the same questions for the case of the Dirichlet boundary value problem.
