Characterizations and properties of solutions to parabolic problems of linear growth
摘要
We consider notions of weak solutions to a general class of parabolic problems of linear growth, formulated independently of time regularity. Equivalence with variational solutions is established using a stability result for weak solutions. A key tool in our arguments is approximation of parabolic BV functions using time mollification and Sobolev approximations. We also prove a comparison principle and a local boundedness result for solutions. When the time derivative of the solution is in
