Abstract

We study the finite speed of propagation of the Cauchy-Dirichlet problem for the porous media equation with absorption or convection terms in the strip $\mathfrak R_k^N\times (0,T)$, where $\mathfrak R_k^N=\mathfrak R^N\cap\{x_1, ..., x_k>0\}$, $1\leq k\leq N $ and we find new upper bounds of the free boundary.
Finally, we consider the case of higher order parabolic equations.
