Noncoercive parabolic obstacle problems

Abstract

We prove an existence result for obstacle problems related to convection-diffusion parabolic equations with singular coefficients in the convective term. Our operator is not coercive, the obstacle function is time-dependent irregular, and the coefficients in the lower-order term belong to a borderline mixed Lebesgue-Marcinkiewicz space.
