Abstract

We study the singular nonlinear equation tut=F(t,x,u,ux)tu_{t}=F(t,x,u,u_{x}), where the function FF is assumed to be continuous in tt and holomorphic in the other variables. Under some growth conditions on the coefficients of the partial Taylor expansion of FF, we show that if F(t,x,0,0)F(t,x,0,0) is of order O(μ(t)α)O(\mu(t)^{\alpha}) for some α[0,1]\alpha\in[0,1] as t0t\rightarrow0 uniformly in some neighborhood of x=0x=0, then the equation has a unique solution u(t,x)u(t,x) with the same growth order.
