Abstract

Some of the most important problems  in PDE   are related to the understanding of singularities. This usually happens through a blow up procedure near the  potential singularity which uses the scaling properties of the  equation.  In the case of a parabolic equation the blow up analysis often leads to special solutions which are  defined for all time  $- \infty < t \leq T$,  for some $T \leq  +\infty$. We refer to them as {\em ancient} solutions.
