An extension of Dickstein's "small lambda" theorem for finite time blowup

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

In this paper we prove for 1<p<1+1N+1, φ∈L1( RN) with ∫RNφ=0 and ζ∈ C0(RN)∩W1,1(RN) with ∫RNζ≠0 such that φ=∂jζ that there exists λ̄>0 such that the solution u of the equation ut-Δu=|u|p-1u with u(0)=λφ blows up in finite time for all 0<λ<λ̄. This extends a similar result of Dickstein who treated the case ∫RNφ≠0 and 1<p<1+2N.
