Sign-changing solutions of the nonlinear heat equation with persistent singularities
2020
We study the existence of sign-changing solutions to the nonlinear heat equation $\partial _t u = \Delta u + |u|^\alpha u$ on ${\mathbb R}^N $, $N\ge 3$, with $\frac {2} {N-2} 0$ that can be arbitrarily large, we prove that for any $u_0 \in \mathrm{L} ^\infty _{\mathrm{loc}} ({\mathbb R}^N \setminus \{ 0 \}) $ which is bounded at infinity and equals $\mu |x|^{- \frac {2} {\alpha }}$ in a neighborhood of $0$, there exists a local (in time) solution $u$ of the nonlinear heat equation with initial value $u_0$, which is sign-changing, bounded at infinity and has the singularity $\beta |x|^{- \frac {2} {\alpha }}$ at the origin in the sense that for $t>0$, $ |x|^{\frac {2} {\alpha }} u(t,x) \to \beta $ as $ |x| \to 0$, where $\beta = \frac {2} {\alpha } ( N -2 - \frac {2} {\alpha } ) $. These solutions in general are neither stationary nor self-similar.
