Abstract: | The initial value problem on ?R, R] is considered: ut(t, x) = uxx(t, x) + u(t, x)γu(t, ±R) = 0u(0, x) = ?(x), where ? ? 0 and γ is a fixed large number. It is known that for some initial values ? the solution u(t, x) exists only up to some finite time T, and that ∥u(t, ·)∥∞ → ∞ as t → T. For the specific initial value ? = kψ, where ψ ? 0, ψxx + ψγ = 0, ψ(±R) = 0, k is sufficiently large, it is shown that if x ≠ 0, then limt → Tu(t, x) and limt → Tux(t, x) exist and are finite. In other words, blow-up occurs only at the point x = 0. |
