On blow-up of solutions for a semilinear parabolic equation involving variable source and positive initial energy

This article is concerned with a class of semilinear parabolic equations with variable reaction $u_t=\Delta u+u^{p\left(x\right)}$ with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. Under some appropriate assumptions on the parameters, and with certain initial data, a blow-up result is established with positive initial energy.     

Blow-up for the Timoshenko-type equation with variable exponents

The finite time blow-up of solutions to a nonlinear Timoshenko-type equation with variable exponents is studied. More concretely, we prove that the solutions blow up in finite time with positive initial energy. Also, the existence of finite time blow-up solutions with arbitrarily high initial energy is established. Meanwhile, the upper and lower bounds of the blow-up time are derived. These results deepen and generalize the ones obtained in [Nonlinear Anal. Real World Appl., 61: Paper No. 103341, 2021].     

Critical exponents in a degenerate parabolic equation with weighted source

This article deals with the Fujita-type theorems to the Cauchy problem of degenerate parabolic equation not in divergence form with weighted source u _t ?=?u ^p Δu?+?a(x)u ^q in ? ⁿ ?×?(0,?T), where p?≥?1, q?>?1, and the positive weight function a(x) is of the order |x| ^m with m?>??2. It was known that for the degenerate diffusion equation in divergence form, the weight function affects both of the critical Fujita exponent and the second critical exponent (describing the critical smallness of initial data required by global solutions via the decay rates of the initial data at space-infinity). Contrarily, it is interesting to prove that the weight function in the present model with degenerate diffusion not in divergence form influences the second critical exponent only, without changing the critical Fujita exponent.     

Asymptotic behavior and blow-up of solutions for infinitely degenerate semilinear parabolic equations with logarithmic nonlinearity

In this paper, we study the initial-boundary value problem for infinitely degenerate semilinear parabolic equations with logarithmic nonlinearity $u_t?{△}_{X}u=u\log ?|u|$, where $X=(X_1,X_2,?,X_m)$ is an infinitely degenerate system of vector fields, and ${△}_X:={\sum }_{j=1}^m{X}_j^2$ is an infinitely degenerate elliptic operator. Using potential well method, we first prove the invariance of some sets and vacuum isolating of solutions. Then, by the Galerkin method and the logarithmic Sobolev inequality, we obtain the global existence and blow-up at +∞ of solutions with low initial energy or critical initial energy, and we also discuss the asymptotic behavior of the solutions.

The critical exponents for the quasi-linear parabolic equations with inhomogeneous terms

This paper deals with the critical exponents for the quasi-linear parabolic equations in Rn and with an inhomogeneous source, or in exterior domains and with inhomogeneous boundary conditions. For n?3, σ>−2/n and p>max{1,1+σ}, we obtain that pc=n(1+σ)/(n−2) is the critical exponent of these equations. Furthermore, we prove that if max{1,1+σ}<p?pc, then every positive solution of these equations blows up in finite time; whereas these equations admit the global positive solutions for some f(x) and some initial data u₀(x) if p>pc. Meantime, we also demonstrate that every positive solution of these equations blows up in finite time provided n=1,2, σ>−1 and p>max{1,1+σ}.

Lower bounds for the blow-up time in a semilinear parabolic problem involving a variable source

Global and nonglobal weak solutions to a degenerate parabolic system

This paper deals with a degenerate parabolic system coupled via general reaction terms of power type. Global weak solutions are obtained by means of energy estimates and the De Giorgi's technique. In particular, the criterion for global nonexistence of weak solutions is proved by introducing suitable weak sub-solutions together with a weak comparison principle. In summary, the critical exponent for weak solutions of the degenerate parabolic system is determined.

Global solvability for quasilinear parabolic equation with inhomogeneous density and a source

We study the Cauchy problem for quasilinear parabolic equation with inhomogeneous density and a source. We show that this problem has a global solution under the assumptions that initial datum is small enough in the integral sense and the source term has overcritical behaviour. The sharp estimates of a solution is obtained as well.
