Abstract

We illustrate an alternative derivation of the viscous regularization of a nonlinear forward-backward diffusion equation which was studied in [A. Novick-Cohen and R. L. Pego. Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. , 324:331-351]. We propose and discuss a new ''non-smooth'' variant of the viscous regularization and we offer an heuristic argument that indicates that this variant should display interesting hysteretic effects. Finally, we offer a constructive proof of existence of solutions for the viscous regularization based on a suitable approximation scheme.
