A BLOW-UP RESULT FOR A CLASS DOUBLY NONLINEAR PARABOLIC EQUATIONS WITH VARIABLE-EXPONENT NONLINEARITIES

This paper deals with the following doubly nonlinear parabolic equations(u + |u|~(r(x)-2)u)t-div(|?u|~(m(x)-2)?u) = |u|~(p(x)-2)u, where the exponents of nonlinearity r(x), m(x) and p(x) are given functions. Under some appropriate assumptions on the exponents of nonlinearity, and with certain initial data, a blow-up result is established with positive initial energy.
