On a class of nonlinear Neumann problems of parabolic type: Blow-up of solutions. (English) Zbl 0862.35049

Summary: We investigate large time behaviour of solutions for a class of nonlinear parabolic Neumann problems of indefinite type, possibly degenerate. Depending on the features of the problem, several parameters play a role to establish global boundedness or finite time blow-up of solutions. The occurrence of either situation is related with the existence of stationary solutions. Proofs make extensive use of monotonicity methods.
