A note on maximal solutions of nonlinear parabolic equations with absorption

Abstract

If $\Omega$ is a bounded domain in ${\mathbb{R}}^N$ and $f$ a continuous increasing function satisfying a super linear growth condition at infinity, we study the existence and uniqueness of solutions for the problem (P): ${\partial }_{t}u-\Delta u+f(u)=0$ in $Q_{\infty }^{\Omega }:=\Omega \times (0,\infty )$, $u=\infty$ on the parabolic boundary ${\partial }_{p}Q$. We prove that in most cases, the existence and uniqueness is reduced to the same property for the associated stationary equation in $\Omega$.
