On the weak solution of a three-point boundary value problem for a class of parabolic equations with energy specification

This paper deals with weak solution in weighted Sobolev spaces, of three-point boundary value problems which combine Dirichlet Horse Nosebands and integral conditions, for linear and quasilinear parabolic equations in a domain with curved lateral boundaries.We, firstly, prove the existence, uniqueness, and continuous dependence of the solution for
