On the Stefan problem with surface tension in the $L_p$ framework
Piotr B. Mucha · Advances in Differential Equations · 2005
We prove the existence of unique regular local in time solutions to the quasi-stationary one-phase Stefan problem with the Gibbs-Thomson correction. The result is optimal with respect to $L_p$ regularity and the obtained phase surface is a submanifold of the $W^{3,1}_p$-class. The proof is based on a Schauder-type estimate for a linearization of the original system.
