Doubly nonlinear parabolic equations related to the p-Laplacian operator

Fatiha Benzekri, Abderrahmane El Hachimi

Abstract:
This paper concerns the doubly nonlinear parabolic P.D.E.
$$ \frac{\partial\beta(u)} {\partial t}-\Delta_p u + f(x,t,u )= 0 \quad \hbox{ in } \Omega\times\mathbb{R}^+, $$
with Dirichlet boundary conditions and initial data. We investigate here a time-discretization of the continuous problem by the Euler forward scheme. In addition to existence, uniqueness and stability questions, we study the long-time behavior of the solution to the discrete problem. We prove the existence of a global attractor, and obtain regularity results under certain restrictions.
