# Very weak solutions of singular porous medium equations with measure data

• We consider non-homogeneous, singular ($0 < m < 1$) porous medium type equations with a non-negative Radon-measure $\mu$ having finite total mass $\mu(E_T)$ on the right-hand side. We deal with a Cauchy-Dirichlet problem for these type of equations, with homogeneous boundary conditions on the parabolic boundary of the domain $E_T$, and we establish the existence of a solution in the sense of distributions. Finally, we show that the constructed solution satisfies linear pointwise estimates via linear Riesz potentials.
