Abstract:
We investigate the Dirichlet problem for the parablic equation



in a non-smooth domain . In a recent paper [1] existence and boundary regularity results were established. In this paper we present uniqueness and comparison theorems and results on the continuous dependence of the solution on the initial-boundary data. In particular, we prove -contraction estimation in general non-smooth domains.
