Global well-posedness for the two-dimensional Muskat problem with slope less than 1

Abstract

We prove the existence of global, smooth solutions to the two-dimensional Muskat problem in the stable regime whenever the product of the maximal and minimal slope is less than 1. The curvature of these solutions decays to 0 as t goes to infinity, and they are unique when the initial data is C1,ϵ . We do this by getting a priori estimates using a nonlinear maximum principle first introduced in a paper by Kiselev, Nazarov, and Volberg (2007), where the authors proved global well-posedness for the surface quasigeostraphic equation.
