On a class of degenerate parabolic equations with dynamic boundary conditions

We consider a quasi-linear parabolic equation with nonlinear dynamic boundary conditions occurring as a natural generalization of the semilinear reaction-diffusion equation with dynamic boundary conditions. The corresponding class of initial and boundary value problems has already been studied previously, proving well-posedness and the existence of the global attractor. The goal of this note is to show that the previous analysis can be redone for more general nonlinearities by proving an additional (uniform) L\infty-estimate on the solutions. In particular, we derive new conditions which reflect an exact balance between the two nonlinear mechanisms involved, even when both the nonlinear (source) terms contribute in opposite directions.
