Abstract

This paper deals with the blow-up of solutions to a class of parabolic problems with time-dependent coefficients under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. For one set of problems in this class we show that no global solution can exist. For another we derive lower bounds for the time of blow-up when blow-up occurs.
