Asymptotic behavior of positive solutions for heat equation with nonlinear term

We study the nonlinear parabolic equation , in Rn×(0,∞) with boundary condition u(x,0)=u₀(x), not necessarily bounded function. The nonlinearity φ((x,t),u) is required to satisfy some conditions related to the parabolic Kato class P^∞(Rn) while allowing existence of positive solutions of the equation and continuity of such solutions. Our approach is based on potential theory tools.

A Liapunov functional for a singular integral equation

We consider a scalar integral equation where a∈L²[0,∞), while C(t,s) has a significant singularity, but is convex when t−s>0. We construct a Liapunov functional and show that g(t,x(t))−a(t)∈L²[0,∞) and that x(t)−a(t)→0 pointwise as t→∞. Small perturbations are also added to the kernel. In addition, we consider both infinite and finite delay problems. This paper offers a first step toward treating discontinuous kernels with Liapunov functionals.
