P. Marcolongo et A. Oliaro, Global solvability for semilinear anisotropic evolution partial differential equations, NONLIN ANAL, 47(1), 2001, pp. 525-530
In this paper we consider the Cauchy problem for a class of semilinear anis
otropic evolution equations with parabolic linear part. Using standard tech
niques we reduce our problem in an integral form. Thus a local L-2 solution
is given as fixed point of the correspondent integral operator, defined fo
r t is an element of (0, T-1]. Taking as initial datum the solution evalued
in T-1, we find a local L-2 solution, defined for t is an element of [T-1,
2T(1)]. Iterating this process and patching together all the local solutio
ns defined on intervals of type [nT(1), (n + 1)T-1], with n is an element o
f N, we obtain a global solution defined for every t greater than or equal
to 0. We point out that our paper recaptures the results in Tadmor [8] as a
particular case.
