Nonexistence of type II blowup solution for a semilinear heat equation (Q616461)

The author considers radially symmetric solutions of the Cauchy problem for the semilinear heat equation \(u_t=\Delta u+|u|^{p-1}u\), where \(x\in\mathbb R^N\), \(N>2\), \(p>(N+2)/(N-2)\) and \(p<1+4/(N-4-2\sqrt{N-1})\) if \(N>10\). It is known that solutions of this problem can blow up in finite time \(T\). Assuming that the blow-up does not take place at the spatial infinity, the main result of the paper guarantees that the blow-up rate is of type I: There exists a constant \(C>0\) such that \(|u(x,t)|\leq C(T-t)^{-1/(p-1)}\).
