Determination of the Lower Coefficient in a Parabolic Equation with Strong Power Degeneration

  • Published:
Ukrainian Mathematical Journal Aims and scope

We establish conditions for the existence and uniqueness of the classical solution to the inverse problem of identification of the time-dependent lowest coefficient of the first derivative in a one-dimensional degenerate parabolic equation. The Dirichlet boundary conditions and the integral condition of overdetermination are imposed. We study the case of strong power degeneration.
