Strong bounded solutions for nonlinear parabolic systems

Nsoki Mavinga, Mubenga N. Nkashama

Abstract:
In this article we study the existence of strong bounded solutions for nonlinear parabolic systems on a domain which is bounded in space and unbounded in time (namely the entire real line). We use nonlinear iteration arguments combined with some a priori estimates to derive the existence results. We also provide conditions under which we have a positive solution. Some examples are given to illustrate the results.
