Abstract

In this paper, we consider rational or multi-cut solutions to Hele-Shaw flow driven by suction. A lower bound of the distance between the moving boundary and the suction point is given and this lower bound enables us to find necessary conditions for rational or multi-cut solutions to blow up due to the boundary touching the sink.
