Quasilinear elliptic-parabolic differential equations

TLDR
In this article, the authors considered the special cases of an elliptic equation with time as parameter, that is, b(z)= 0, and the standard parabolic equation, that are, b (z)=z are included.
Abstract
The structure conditions are the ellipticity of a and the (weak) monotonicity of b, and b has to be a subgradient in case m > 1. First we treat the case that b is continuous, and later (Sect. 4) we include Stefan problems, that is, we allow b to have jumps. The special cases of an elliptic equation with time as parameter, that is, b(z)= 0, and the standard parabolic equation, that is, b(z)=z are included. Some special single equations of mixed elliptic and parabolic type are given in the following. The gas flow through a porous medium is described by the equation

The geometry of dissipative evolution equations: the porous medium equation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the porous medium equation has a gradient flow structure which is both physically and mathematically natural, and they use the intuition and the calculus of Riemannian geometry to quantify this asymptotic behavior.

Contractions in the 2-Wasserstein Length Space and Thermalization of Granular Media

TL;DR: In this article, an algebraic decay rate is derived which bounds the time required for velocities to equilibrate in a spatially homogeneous flow-through model representing the continuum limit of a gas of particles interacting through slightly inelastic collisions.

Entropy dissipation methods for degenerate parabolic problems and generalized Sobolev inequalities

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed the large-time asymptotics of quasilinear (possibly) degenerate parabolic systems in three cases: 1) scalar problems with confinement by a uniformly convex potential, 2) unconfined scalar equations and 3) un-confined systems.

An Introduction to Evolution Governed by Accretive Operators

TL;DR: In this article, a broad range of interesting problems in partial differential equations arising from physical models have been discussed, including the evolution problems, which describe the change of a physical system in time, or result from seeking stationary solutions of some evolution problem.
