Concepts of classical and weak solutions are introduced. We show that a classical solution also is a weak solution and, by using variational inequalities, that given arbitrary initial $(t = 0)$ data there exists a unique weak solution defined on the time interval $0 \leqslant t < \infty $. We also prove some monotonicity properties of weak solutions and that, under reasonable hypotheses, the moving boundaries consist of analytic curves for $t > 0$.Read More
