In some chemical reaction–diffusion processes, the reaction takes place only at some local sites, due to the presence of a catalyst. In this paper we study the well-posedness of a model problem of this type. Sufficient conditions are found to ensure global existence and finite time blowup. The blowup rate and the blowup set are also investigated in the case of special nonlinearity.

In this paper, we prove the global existence and non-existence of solutions of the following problem: RDC{ u t = u xx + u 2 - ∫ u 2 ( x ) d x , x ϵ (0, 1), t > 0, u x (0, t ) = u x (1, t ) = t > 0, u ( x , 0) = u 0 ( x ), x ϵ (0, 1), ∫ 1 0 u ( x, t ) d x = 0, t > 0, Moreover, let u m ( x ) be a stationary solution of problem RDC with m zeros in the interval (0, 1) for m ϵ N , and if we take u 0 ( x ). Then we have that the solution exists globally if 0 < ϵ < 1, and blows up in finite time if ϵ > 1. This result verifies the numerical results of Budd et al . (1993, SIAM Jl appl. Math . 53, 718-742) that the non-zero stationary solutions are unstable.

In this paper, we study the local well-posedness for the Cauchy problem of a semilinear fractional diffusion equation where the perturbations behave like [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] is the characteristic function of a ball [Formula: see text]. Here, we are interested in the solvability of the problem when singular initial data [Formula: see text] are taken in [Formula: see text]. Eventually, we give sufficient conditions to the nonexistence of positive global solutions.

We investigate the blowup properties of the positive solutions for a semilinear reaction-diffusion system with nonlinear nonlocal boundary condition. We obtain some sufficient conditions for global existence and blowup by utilizing the method of subsolution and supersolution.

This paper deals with the properties of one kind of reaction-diffusion equations with Neumann boundary conditions based on the comparison principles. The relations of parameter and the situation of the coupled about equations are used to construct the global existent super-solutions and the blowing-up sub-solutions, and then we obtain the conditions of the global existence and blow-up in finite time solutions with the processing techniques of inequality.

By means of Bihari type inequalities, we derive sufficient conditions for solutions of a discrete reaction-diffusion equation to be bounded or to converge to zero. Asymptotic representation of solutions are also derived. Our results yield estimates and explicit attractive regions for the solutions.

We study a doubly parabolic Keller–Segel system in one spatial dimension, with diffusions given by fractional Laplacians. We obtain several local and global well-posedness results for the subcritical and critical cases (for the latter we need certain smallness assumptions). We also study dynamical properties of the system with added logistic term. Then, this model exhibits a spatio-temporal chaotic behavior, where a number of peaks emerge. In particular, we prove the existence of an attractor and provide an upper bound on the number of peaks that the solution may develop. Finally, we perform a numerical analysis suggesting that there is a finite time blowup if the diffusion is weak enough, even in presence of a damping logistic term. Our results generalize on one hand the results for local diffusions, on the other the results for the parabolic–elliptic fractional case.
