Abstract

A general class of probability density functions u(x,t)=Ctαd(1(xctα)β)+γ,xRd,t>0,u(x,t)=Ct^{-\alpha d}\left (1-\left (\frac{\|x\|}{ct^{\alpha}}\right )^{\beta}\right )_+^{\gamma},\quad x\in \mathbb{R}^d,t>0, is considered, containing as particular case the Barenblatt solutions arising, for instance, in the study of nonlinear heat equations. Alternative probabilistic representations of the Barenblatt-type solutions u(x,t)u(x,t) are proposed. In the one-dimensional case, by means of this approach, u(x,t)u(x,t) can be connected with the wave propagation.
