(Received December 25, 2009, revised September 17, 2010)
Abstract. We study the existence of connecting orbits for the Fujita equation with a critical or supercritical exponent. For certain ranges of the exponent we prove the existence of heteroclinic connections from positive steady states to zero and a homoclinic orbit with respect to zero.
