Abstract
We study weighted porous media equations on Euclidean domains either with Dirichlet or with Neumann homogeneous boundary conditions. Existence of weak solutions and uniqueness in a suitable class is studied in detail. Moreover, smoothing effects are discussed for short time, in connection with the validity of a Poincaré inequality in appropriate weighted Sobolev spaces, and the long-time asymptotic behaviour is also studied. In fact, we prove full equivalence between certain smoothing effects and suitable weighted Poincaré-type inequalities. Particular emphasis is given to the Neumann problem, which is much less studied in the literature, as well as to the case of R^N when the corresponding weight makes its measure finite, so that solutions converge to their weighted mean value instead than to zero. Examples are given in terms of wide classes of weights.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
