Solvability for time-fractional semilinear parabolic equations with singular initial data

We discuss the existence and nonexistence of a local and global-in-time solution to the fractional problem $$ ¥begin{cases} ¥partial_t^{¥alpha}u=¥Delta u+f(u) & x¥in¥Omega,¥ 01$ one has $|f(¥xi)-f(¥eta)|¥le C(1+|¥xi|+|¥eta|)^{p-1}|¥xi-¥eta|$ for all $¥xi, ¥eta¥in ¥R$. Particular attention is paid to the doubly critical case $(p,r)=(1+2/N,1)$.

On the initial value problem for a class of nonlinear biharmonic equation with time-fractional derivative

In this study, we investigate the intial value problem (IVP) for a time-fractional fourth-order equation with nonlinear source terms. More specifically, we consider the time-fractional biharmonic with exponential nonlinearity and the time-fractional Cahn–Hilliard equation. By using the Fourier transform concept, the generalized formula for the mild solution as well as the smoothing effects of resolvent operators are proved. For the IVP associated with the first one, by using the Orlicz space with the function $\Xi (z)={\textrm {e}}^{|z|^{p}}-1$ and some embeddings between it and the usual Lebesgue spaces, we prove that the solution is a global-in-time solution or it shall blow up in a finite time if the initial value is regular. In the case of singular initial data, the local-in-time/global-in-time existence and uniqueness are derived. Also, the regularity of the mild solution is investigated. For the IVP associated with the second one, some modifications to the generalized formula are made to deal with the nonlinear term. We also establish some important estimates for the derivatives of resolvent operators, they are the basis for using the Picard sequence to prove the local-in-time existence of the solution.

A local theory for a fractional reaction-diffusion equation

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.

The Cauchy problem for a system of nonlinear heat equations in two space dimensions

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].
