The heat equation with singular nonlinearity and singular initial data

We study the existence, uniqueness and regularity of positive solutions of the parabolic equation ut−Δu=a(x)uq+b(x)up in a bounded domain and with Dirichlet's condition on the boundary. We consider here a∈Lα(Ω), b∈Lβ(Ω) and 0<q?1<p. The initial data u(0)=u₀ is considered in the space Lr(Ω), r?1. In the main result (0<q<1), we assume a,b?0 a.e. in Ω and we assume that u₀?γdΩ for some γ>0. We find a unique solution in the space .
