The quasilinear degenerate evolution equation of parabolic type d(Mv) dt + L(Mv)v = F (Mv), 0 < t ≤ T considered in a Banach space X is written, putting Mv = u, in the form du dt + A(u)u 3 F (u), 0 < t ≤ T , where A(u) = L(u)M−1 are multivalued linear operators in X for u ∈ K, K being a bounded ball ‖u‖Z < R in another Banach space Z continuously embedded in X. Existence and uniqueness of the l...

This paper is concerned with the state-constrained optimal control of the threedimensional thermistor problem, a fully quasilinear coupled system of a parabolic and elliptic PDE with mixed boundary conditions. This system models the heating of a conducting material by means of direct current. Local existence, uniqueness and continuity for the state system are derived by employing maximal parabo...

Using the nonlinear capacity method, we investigate problem of nonexistence nonnegative monotone solutions for a quasilinear elliptic inequality type Δpu ≥ uq in half-space terms parameters p and q.
