On Quasilinear Parabolic Equations And Continuous Maximal Regularity, Jeremy Lecrone, Gieri Simonett

Department of Math & Statistics Faculty Publications

We consider a class of abstract quasilinear parabolic problems with lower–order terms exhibiting a prescribed singular structure. We prove well–posedness and Lipschitz continuity of associated semiflows. Moreover, we investigate global existence of solutions and we extend the generalized principle of linearized stability to settings with initial values in critical spaces. These general results are applied to the surface diffusion flow in various settings.
