The author studies a Cauchy problem: \(u_t=\Delta u+u^p\) in \(\mathbb{R}^N \times(0,\infty)\), \(u(x,0)=\lambda \varphi(x)\) in \(\mathbb{R}^N\), where \(p>p_*\equiv (N+2)/(N-2)\), \(\lambda>0\) and \(\varphi\) is a nonnegative radially symmetric function in \(C^1(\mathbb{R}^N)\) with compact support, and shows that if \(p_*<p <p^*\), where \(p^*=\infty\) if \(3\leq N\leq 10\) and \(p^*=1+6/(N-10)\) if \(N\geq 11\), then there is \(\lambda_\varphi>0\) such that: (i) if \(\lambda< \lambda_\varphi\), then \(u\) exists globally in time in the classical sense and \(u\) converges to zero locally uniformly in \(\mathbb{R}^N\) as \(t\to\infty\); (ii) if \(\lambda= \lambda_\varphi\), then \(u\) blows up incompletely in finite time; (iii) if \(\lambda> \lambda_\varphi\), then \(u\) blows up completely in finite time.
