Abstract:

We consider non-negative and integrable classical solutions to the Cauchy problem $u_t-\Delta u+\vert \nabla u\vert ^p=0$ when $p\in (0,+\infty )$. For $p\in (0,N/(N+1))$ we prove that any such solution vanishes identically after a finite time. For higher values of $p$ temporal decay estimates are obtained.
