Parabolic PDE.


et $U$ be a bounded subset of $\QTR{cal}{R}^{n}$ . The MATH are functions MATH . The $T$ is a positive number. The $L$ is a linear differential operator

MATH (Operator L 2)

Problem

(Parabolic Dirichlet problem). MATH

Definition

(Parabolic differential operator). The operator MATH is called "parabolic" if the matrix MATH is uniformly positive definite for all MATH : MATH

Definition

(Bilinear form B 2). Let MATH , MATH and MATH . We introduce the notation MATH

Let us multiply the equations of the problem ( Parabolic Dirichlet problem ) with a function MATH and integrate with respect to $x$ over $U$ . After integration by parts we obtain MATH

Definition

(Weak solution of parabolic Dirichlet problem). The function MATH is a "weak solution" of the problem ( Parabolic Dirichlet problem ) if it satisfies MATH

To understand the requirement MATH observe that MATH with MATH and compare with the propositions ( Representation of dual Sobolev space ) and ( Embedding of dual Sobolev space ). We see that the expression MATH is bounded for MATH : MATH MATH Finally MATH and MATH hence we need MATH
