Critical exponents for non-simultaneous blow-up in a localized parabolic system

The paper deals with the radially symmetric solutions of _ut=Δu+u^m(x,t)vⁿ(0,t)$u_t=\Delta u+u^m(x,t)v^n(0,t)$, _vt=Δv+u^p(0,t)v^q(x,t)$v_t=\Delta v+u^p(0,t)v^q(x,t)$, subject to null Dirichlet boundary conditions. For the blow-up classical solutions, we propose the critical exponents for non-simultaneous blow-up by determining the complete and optimal classification for all the non-negative exponents: (i) There exist initial data such that u$u$ (v$v$) blows up alone if and only if m>p+1$m>p+1$ (q>n+1$q>n+1$), which means that any blow-up is simultaneous if and only if m≤p+1$m\le p+1$, q≤n+1$q\le n+1$. (ii) Any blow-up is u$u$ (v$v$) blowing up with v$v$ (u$u$) remaining bounded if and only if m>p+1$m>p+1$, q≤n+1$q\le n+1$ (m≤p+1$m\le p+1$, q>n+1$q>n+1$). (iii) Both non-simultaneous and simultaneous blow-up may occur if and only if m>p+1$m>p+1$, q>n+1$q>n+1$. Moreover, we consider the blow-up rate and set estimates which were not obtained in the previously known work for the same model.     

A boundary blow-up elliptic problem with an inhomogeneous term

By a perturbation method and constructing comparison functions, we reveal how the inhomogeneous term h$h$ affects the exact asymptotic behaviour of solutions near the boundary to the problem △u=b(x)g(u)+λh(x)$△u=b\left(x\right)g\left(u\right)+\lambda h\left(x\right)$, u>0$u>0$ in Ω$\Omega$, u_|∂Ω=∞$u{|}_{\partial \Omega }=\infty$, where Ω$\Omega$ is a bounded domain with smooth boundary in R^N${\mathbb{R}}^N$, λ>0$\lambda >0$, g∈C¹[0,∞)$g\in C^1[0,\infty )$ is increasing on [0,∞)$[0,\infty )$, g(0)=0$g\left(0\right)=0$, g^′$g^{\prime }$ is regularly varying at infinity with positive index ρ$\rho$, the weight b$b$, which is non-trivial and non-negative in Ω$\Omega$, may be vanishing on the boundary, and the inhomogeneous term h$h$ is non-negative in Ω$\Omega$ and may be singular on the boundary.
