Bounds of waiting-time in nonlinear diffusion

The solutions of the nonlinear diffusion equation ht = (h mhχ)χ may have a waiting-time, i.e., an initial finite time interval tω in which the front is at rest before starting to move. The theory gives us the value of t ω only in a few special cases, when it is determined by the local behaviour near...

However, in many instances tω depends on the global behaviour of g(χ), and in these cases the theory provides only upper and lower bounds that frequently may not be very helpful to estimate the tω.
