Synopsis

This paper presents new comparison and uniqueness results for the solutions of parabolic quasilinear boundary value problems with (and without) obstacles. A stability result in L1(Ω) yields the asymptotic stabilisation in this space, when t → ∞) towards the corresponding elliptic problem.
