Interior Gradient Blow-up in a Semilinear Parabolic Equation

چکیده
We present a one dimensional semilinear parabolic equation for which the spatial derivative of solutions becomes unbounded in finite time while the solutions themselves remain bounded. In our example the derivative blows up in the interior of the space interval rather than at the boundary, as in earlier examples. In the case of monotone solutions we show that gradient blow-up occurs at a single point, and we study the shape of the singularity. Our argument for gradient blow-up also provides a pair of “naive viscosity suband supersolutions” which violate the comparison principle.

Classification of Connecting Solutions of Semilinear Parabolic Equations
Abstract. For a given semilinear parabolic equation with polynomial nonlinearity, many solutions blow up in finite time. For a certain large class of these equations, we show that some of the solutions which do not blow up actually tend to equilibria. The characterizing property of such solutions is a finite energy constraint, which comes about from the fact that this class of equations can be ...
متن کاملTo The Memory of My Father ,
This thesis is concerned with the study of the Blow-up phenomena for parabolic problems, which can be defined in a basic way as the inability to continue the solutions up to or after a finite time, the so called blow-up time. Namely, we consider the blow-up location in space and its rate estimates, for special cases of the following types of problems: (i) Dirichlet problems for semilinear equat...
متن کاملSome Blow-Up Problems For A Semilinear Parabolic Equation With A Potential
The blow-up rate estimate for the solution to a semilinear parabolic equation ut = ∆u+V (x)|u|p−1u in Ω×(0, T ) with 0-Dirichlet boundary condition is obtained. As an application, it is shown that the asymptotic behavior of blow-up time and blow-up set of the problem with nonnegative initial data u(x, 0) = Mφ(x) as M goes to infinity, which have been found in [5], are improved under some reason...
متن کاملBlow-up analysis for a semilinear parabolic equation with nonlinear memory and nonlocal nonlinear boundary condition
In this paper, we consider a semilinear parabolic equation ut = ∆u + u q ∫ t 0 u(x, s)ds, x ∈ Ω, t > 0 with nonlocal nonlinear boundary condition u|∂Ω×(0,+∞) = ∫ Ω φ(x, y)u (y, t)dy and nonnegative initial data, where p, q ≥ 0 and l > 0. The blow-up criteria and the blow-up rate are obtained.
متن کاملLife Span of Blow-up Solutions for Higher-order Semilinear Parabolic Equations
In this article, we study the higher-order semilinear parabolic equation ut + (−∆)u = |u|, (t, x) ∈ R+ × R , u(0, x) = u0(x), x ∈ R . Using the test function method, we derive the blow-up critical exponent. And then based on integral inequalities, we estimate the life span of blow-up solutions.
