We consider the semilinear heat equation $u_t=\Delta u+u^p$ on ${\mathbb R}^N$. Assuming that $N\ge 3$ and $p$ is greater than the Sobolev critical exponent $(N+2)/(N-2)$, we examine entire solutions (classical solutions defined for all…

We consider the semilinear heat equation $$ u_t-\Delta u=|u|^{p-1}u,\ \ (t,x)\in\mathbb{R}^+\times\mathbb{R}^n. $$ The well-known difficulty with this problem is that the potential well method cannot be applied directly, due to the scaling…

We consider the nonlinear heat equation $u_t = \Delta u + |u|^\alpha u$ with $\alpha >0$, either on ${\mathbb R}^N $, $N\ge 1$, or on a bounded domain with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We prove that in the Sobolev subcritical case $(N-2)…
