Title: Weak solutions for a viscous p-Laplacian equation Author: Changchun Liu (Jilin Univ., China) Abstract: In this paper, we consider the pseudo-parabolic equation $ u_t-k\Delta u_t=\mathop{\rm div}(|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u)$. By using the time-discrete method, we establish the existence of weak solutions, and also discuss the uniqueness. Submitted August 5, 2002. Published June 10, 2003.
