This note is concerned with the existence of a weak solution for a degenerate Cauehy problem of parabolic type in the n-dimensional space Rn. The degenerate property is in the sense that the matrix (a~ j (t, x)) involved in the differential operator is not necessarily positive definite. The essential idea is the construction of a suitable function space H and to prove the existence of a weak solution in H.
