A Boundary Value Problem for a Class of Anisotropic Degenerate Parabolic–Hyperbolic Equations

Abstract

We consider a mixed type boundary value problem for a class of degenerate parabolic-hyperbolic equations. Namely, we consider a Cartesian product domain and split its boundary into two parts. In one of them we impose a Dirichlet boundary condition; in the other, we impose a Neumann condition. We apply a normal trace formula for $L^2$-divergence-measure fields to prove a new strong trace property in the part of the boundary where the Neumann condition is imposed. We prove existence and uniqueness of the entropy solution. This is a revised corrected version of the paper published in Arch.\ Ration.\ Mech.\ Anal.\ {\bf 226} (2017), no. 3, 975--1008.
