Extract

In this paper we prove the existence of classical solutions for all t ≧ 0 for parabolic equations u′ + A(t)u = –f(u, ∇y, …, ∇2m–2u) of arbitrary order. 2m is the order of the elliptic principal part. f must satisfy some monotonicity and growth conditions. Moreover, similar results are also valid for semilinear elliptic equations.
