Abstract

For n3n\ge 3, 0<m<n2n0<m<\frac{n-2}{n}, β<0\beta<0 and α=2β1m\alpha=\frac{2\beta}{1-m}, we prove the existence, uniqueness and asymptotics near the origin of the singular eternal self-similar solutions of the fast diffusion equation in (Rn{0})×R(\mathbb{R}^n\setminus\{0\})\times \mathbb{R} of the form Uλ(x,t)=eαtfλ(eβtx),xRn{0},tR,U_{\lambda}(x,t)=e^{-\alpha t}f_{\lambda}(e^{-\beta t}x), x\in \mathbb{R}^n\setminus\{0\}, t\in\mathbb{R}, where fλf_{\lambda} is a radially symmetric function satisfying n1mΔfm+αf+βxf=0 in Rn{0},\frac{n-1}{m}\Delta f^m+\alpha f+\beta x\cdot\nabla f=0 \text{ in }\mathbb{R}^n\setminus\{0\}, with limr0r2f(r)1mlogr1=2(n1)(n2nm)β(1m)\underset{\substack{r\to 0}}{\lim}\frac{r^2f(r)^{1-m}}{\log r^{-1}}=\frac{2(n-1)(n-2-nm)}{|\beta|(1-m)} and limrrn2mf(r)=λ21mn2m\underset{\substack{r\to\infty}}{\lim}r^{\frac{n-2}{m}}f(r)=\lambda^{\frac{2}{1-m}-\frac{n-2}{m}}, for some constant λ>0\lambda>0. As a consequence we prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions of Cauchy problem for the fast diffusion equation ut=n1mΔumu_t=\frac{n-1}{m}\Delta u^m in (Rn{0})×(0,)(\mathbb{R}^n\setminus\{0\})\times (0,\infty) with initial value u0u_0 satisfying fλ1(x)u0(x)fλ2(x)f_{\lambda_1}(x)\le u_0(x)\le f_{\lambda_2}(x), xRn{0}\forall x\in\mathbb{R}^n\setminus\{0\}, which satisfies Uλ1(x,t)u(x,t)Uλ2(x,t)U_{\lambda_1}(x,t)\le u(x,t)\le U_{\lambda_2}(x,t), xRn{0},t0\forall x\in \mathbb{R}^n\setminus\{0\}, t\ge 0, for some constants λ1>λ2>0\lambda_1>\lambda_2>0. We also prove the asymptotic behaviour of such singular solution uu of the fast diffusion equation as tt\to\infty when n=3,4n=3,4 and n2n+2m<n2n\frac{n-2}{n+2}\le m<\frac{n-2}{n} holds. Asymptotic behaviour of such singular solution uu of the fast diffusion equation as tt\to\infty is also obtained when 3n<83\le n<8, 12/nm<min(2(n2)3n,n2n+2)1-\sqrt{2/n}\le m<\min\left(\frac{2(n-2)}{3n},\frac{n-2}{n+2}\right), and u(x,t)u(x,t) is radially symmetric in xRn{0}x\in\mathbb{R}^n\setminus\{0\} for any t>0t>0 under appropriate conditions on the initial value u0u_0.
