Abstract

We study the Muskat problem describing the vertical motion of two immiscible fluids in a two-dimensional homogeneous porous medium in an L-p-setting with p is an element of (1, infinity). The Sobolev space W-p(s)(R) with s = 1 + 1/p is a critical space for this problem. We prove, for each s is an element of (1+1/p, 2) that the Rayleigh-Taylor condition identifies an open subset of W-p(s)(R) within which the Muskat problem is of parabolic type. This enables us to establish the local well-posedness of the problem in all these subcritical spaces together with a parabolic smoothing property.
