By construction, we have D

the topology associated with the norm kr I L 2 . R d
C n B h /k. Hence, passing to the
limit in ( 4.97 ), we obtain:

Relying on this minimizing property, one might prove that h 7! F.h/ is
locally lipschitz on .0; 1/. This would justify rigorously that the Cauchy problem
associated with ( 4.91 ) is locally well-posed. We do not go into the details and only
write the subsequent existence result:
For arbitrary h 0 >0 and
h 0 2
R , there exists a unique maximal solution .T ;h/
to ( 4.91 ) with initial data:
h.0/ D h 0 :
h.0/ D h 0 ;
Furthermore, we have the alternative:
either T D1 ,
either T < 1 and

We are more interested here in analyzing the blow-up of the maximal solutions:
Proposition 4.10. Assume that the gravity brings the sphere to the wall, i.e., mg
e d <0 . Given h 0 >0 and h 0 2 R and .T ;h/ the associated maximal solution,
there holds T D1 . In particular, there exists a function h min W Œ0; 1/ ! .0; 1/
