We investigate finite approximate controllability for semilinear heat equation in noncylindrical domains. First we study the linearized problem and then by an application of the fixed point result of Leray-Schauder we obtain the finite approximate controllability for the semilinear state equation.

This article is concerned with the study of approximate controllability for the semilinear heat equation in a bounded domain Ω when the control acts on any open and nonempty subset of Ω or on a part of the boundary. In the case of both an internal and a boundary control, the approximate controllability in LP(Ω) for 1 ≦ p < + ∞ is proved when the nonlinearity is globally Lipschitz with a control in L∞. In the case of the interior control, we also prove approximate controllability in C0(Ω). The proof combines a variational approach to the controllability problem for linear equations and a fixed point method. We also prove that the control can be taken to be of “quasi bang-bang” form.

AbstractIn this paper we prove the interior approximate controllability of the following Semilinear Heat Equation with Impulses and Delaywhere Ω is a bounded domain in RN(N ≥ 1), φ : [−r, 0] × Ω → ℝ is a continuous function, ! is an open nonempty subset of Ω, 1ω denotes the characteristic function of the set ! and the distributed control u be- longs to L2([0, τ]; L2(Ω; )). Here r ≥ 0 is the delay and the nonlinear functions f , Ik : [0, τ] × ℝ × ℝ → ℝ are smooth enough, such thatUnder this condition we prove the following statement: For all open nonempty subset ! of Ω the system is approximately controllable on [0, τ], for all τ > 0.

This paper is devoted to system of semilinear heat equations with exponential-growth nonlinearity in two-dimensional space which is the analogue of the scalar model problem studied in [S. Ibrahim, R. Jrad, M. Majdoub and T. Saanouni, Local well posedness of a 2D semilinear heat equation, Bull. Belg. Math. Soc.21 (2014) 1–17]. First, we prove the local existence and unconditional uniqueness of solutions in the Sobolev space (H1× H1)(ℝ2). The uniqueness part is nontrivial although it follows Brezis–Cazenave's proof [H. Brezis and T. Cazenave, A nonlinear heat equation with singular initial data, J. Anal. Math.68 (1996) 73–90] in the case of monomial nonlinearity in dimension d ≥ 3. Next, we show that in the defocusing case our solution is bounded, and therefore exists globally in time. Finally, for this system, we treat the question of blow-up in finite time under the negativity condition on the energy functional. The technique to be used is adapted from [Bull. Belg. Math. Soc. 21 (2014) 1–17].

In this paper, we study the blow-up behaviour of the radially symmetric non-negative solutions u of the semilinear heat equation with supercritical power nonlinearity up (that is, (N – 2)p> N + 2). We prove the existence of non-trivial self-similar blow-up patterns of u around the blow-up point x = 0. This result follows from a convergence theorem for a nonlinear parabolic equation associated to the initial one after rescaling by similarity variables.

We consider the Cauchy problem for the quasilinear heat equationwhere σ > 0 is a fixed constant, with the critical exponent in the source term β = βc = σ + 1 + 2/N. It is well-known that if β ∈(1,βc) then any non-negative weak solution u(x, t)≢0 blows up in a finite time. For the semilinear heat equation (HE) with σ = 0, the above result was proved by H. Fujita [4].In the present paper we prove that u ≢ 0 blows up in the critical case β = σ + 1 + 2/N with σ > 0. A similar result is valid for the equation with gradient-dependent diffusivitywith σ > 0, and the critical exponent β = σ + 1 + (σ + 2)/N.
