Abstract

We will extend a recent result of B.Choi, P.Daskalopoulos and J.King. For any n3n\ge 3, 0<m<n2n+20<m<\frac{n-2}{n+2} and γ>0\gamma>0, we will construct subsolutions and supersolutions of the fast diffusion equation ut=n1mΔumu_t=\frac{n-1}{m}\Delta u^m in Rn×(t0,T)\mathbb{R}^n\times (t_0,T), t0<Tt_0<T, which decay at the rate (Tt)1+γ1m(T-t)^{\frac{1+\gamma}{1-m}} as tTt\nearrow T. As a consequence we obtain the existence of unique solution of the Cauchy problem ut=n1mΔumu_t=\frac{n-1}{m}\Delta u^m in Rn×(t0,T)\mathbb{R}^n\times (t_0,T), u(x,t0)=u0(x)u(x,t_0)=u_0(x) in Rn\mathbb{R}^n, which decay at the rate (Tt)1+γ1m(T-t)^{\frac{1+\gamma}{1-m}} as tTt\nearrow T when u0u_0 satisfies appropriate decay condition.
