We consider a very general second order nonlinear parabolic boundary value problem. Assuming the existence of an upper solution . and a lower solution satisfying ., we show that the problem has extremal periodic solutions in the order interval K=[ , .]. Our proof is based on a general surjectivity
where p > 1, Ξ΅ > 0, is a bounded domain in R N , and Ο is a continuous function on . It is shown that the blowup time T Ξ΅ of the solution of this problem satisfies T Ξ΅ β 1 p-1 Ο 1-p β as Ξ΅ β 0. Moreover, when the maximum of Ο x is attained at one point, we determine the higher order term of T Ξ΅ whic
