Summary: We consider nonlinear parabolic boundary value problems. First we assume that the right hand side term is discontinuous and nonmonotone and in order to have an existence theory we pass to a multivalued version by filling in the gaps at the discontinuity points. Assuming the existence of an upper solution $\phi $ and of a lower solution $\psi $ such that $\psi \le \phi $, and using the theory of nonlinear operators of monotone type, we show that there exists a solution $x \in [\psi ,\phi ]$ and that the set of all such solutions is compact in $W_{pq}(T)$. For the problem with a Caratheodory right hand side we show the existence of extremal solutions in $[\psi ,\phi ]$. (English)
