Overview
- This is the first book on stochastic porous media equations
- Concentrates on essential points, including existence, uniqueness, ergodicity and finite time extinction results
- Presents the state of the art of the subject in a concise, but reasonably self-contained way
- Includes both the slow and fast diffusion case, but also the critical case, modeling self-organized criticality

About this book
The porous media equation models a number of different physical phenomena, including the flow of an ideal gas and the diffusion of a compressible fluid through porous media, and also thermal propagation in plasma and plasma radiation. Another important application is to a model of the standard self-organized criticality process, called the "sand-pile model" or the "Bak-Tang-Wiesenfeld model".
The book will be of interest to PhD students and researchers in mathematics, physics and biology.
