contents We study the Muskat problem on the half-plane, which models motion of an interface between two fluids of distinct densities (e.g., oil and water) in a porous medium (e.g., an aquifer) that sits atop an impermeable layer (e.g., bedrock). Existence of finite time stable regime interface curve singularities is still open on the whole plane, but we show that they do arise on the half-plane, including from arbitrarily small smooth initial data. To obtain this result, we establish maximum principles for both the potential energy and the slope of solutions in this model, as well as develop a general local well-posedness theory in the companion paper [25].
