Unbounded solutions of the nonlocal heat equation

Analysis of PDEs 2010-02-25 v2

Abstract

We consider the Cauchy problem posed in the whole space for the following nonlocal heat equation: u_t = J * u - u, where J is a symmetric continuous probability density. Depending on the tail of J, we give a rather complete picture of the problem in optimal classes of data by: (i) estimating the initial trace of (possibly unbounded) solutions; (ii) showing existence and uniqueness results in a suitable class; (iii) giving explicit unbounded polynomial solutions.
