This paper deals with the influence of the Hardy potential in a semilinear heat equation. Precisely, we consider the problemwhere Ω⊂ℝN, N≥3, is a bounded regular domain such that 0∈Ω, p>1, and u0≥0, f≥0 are in a suitable class of functions.There is a great difference between this result and the heat equation (λ=0); indeed, if λ>0, there exists a critical exponent p+(λ) such that for p≥p+(λ) there is no solution for any non-trivial initial datum.The Cauchy problem, Ω=ℝN, is also analysed for 1<p<+(λ). We find the same phenomenon about the critical power p+(λ) as above. Moreover, there exists a Fujita-type exponent, F(λ), in the sense that, independently of the initial datum, for 1<p<F(λ), any solution blows up in a finite time. Moreover, F(λ)>1+2/N, which is the Fujita exponent for the heat equation (λ=0).

AbstractThe abstract Cauchy problem on scales of Banach space was considered by many authors. The goal of this paper is to show that the choice of the space on scale is significant. We prove a theorem that the selection of the spaces in which the Cauchy problem ut − Δu = u|u|s with initial–boundary conditions is considered has an influence on the selection of index s. For the Cauchy problem connected with the heat equation we will study how the change of the base space influents the regularity of the solutions.

AbstractLet H be a norm of {\mathbb{R}^{N}} and {H_{0}} the dual norm of H. Denote by {\Delta_{H}} the Finsler–Laplace operator defined by {\Delta_{H}u:=\operatorname{div}(H(\nabla u)\nabla_{\xi}H(\nabla u))}. In this paper we prove that the Finsler–Laplace operator {\Delta_{H}} acts as a linear operator to {H_{0}}-radially symmetric smooth functions. Furthermore, we obtain an optimal sufficient condition for the existence of the solution to the Cauchy problem for the Finsler heat equation\partial_{t}u=\Delta_{H}u,\quad x\in\mathbb{R}^{N},\,t>0,where {N\geq 1} and {\partial_{t}:=\frac{\partial}{\partial t}}.

In this paper, we investigate the life-span of classical solutions to hyperbolic inverse mean curvature flow. Under the condition that the curve can be expressed in the form of a graph, we derive a hyperbolic Monge–Ampère equation which can be reduced to a quasilinear hyperbolic system in terms of Riemann invariants. By the theory on the local solution for the Cauchy problem of the quasilinear hyperbolic system, we discuss life-span of classical solutions to the Cauchy problem of hyperbolic inverse mean curvature.

We are concerned with a Cauchy problem for the semilinear heat equationthen u is called a backward self-similar solution blowing up at t = T. Let pS and pL be the Sobolev and the Lepin exponents, respectively. It was shown by Mizoguchi (J. Funct. Analysis257 (2009), 2911–2937) that k ≡ (p − 1)−1/(p−1) is a unique regular radial solution of (P) if p > pL. We prove that it remains valid for p = pL. We also show the uniqueness of singular radial solution of (P) for p > pS. These imply that the structure of radial backward self-similar blow-up solutions is quite simple for p ≥ pL.
