Abstract

We study a class of nonlinear parabolic equations of the type:
b(u)/∂t− div(a(x, t, u)∇u)+ g(u)|∇u|2 = f,
where the right hand side belongs to L1(Q), b is a strictly increasing C1-function and −div(a(x, t, u)∇u) is a Leray-Lions operator. The function g is just assumed to be con-tinuous on R and to satisfy a sign condition. Without any additional growth assumption on u, we prove the existence of a renormalized solution.
