Title ON A FAST DIFFUSION EQUATION WITH SOURCE

Author Jong-Shenq Guo and Yung-Jen L. Guo

(Received January 19, 2000, revised December 4, 2000)
Abstract. We study in this paper the positive solution of the Cauchy problem for a fast diffusion equation with source. We derive a secondary critical exponent of the behavior of the initial value at infinity for the existence of global (in time) and nonglobal solutions of the Cauchy problem. Furthermore, the large time behaviors of those global solutions are also studied.
