Cazenave-Dickstein-Weissler-type extension of Fujita's problem on Heisenberg groups

Abstract

This paper examines the critical exponents for the existence of global solutions to the equation \begin{equation*} \begin{array}{ll} \displaystyle u_t-Δ_{\mathbb{H}}u=\int_0^t(t-s)^{-γ}|u(s)|^{p-1}u(s)\,ds,&\qquad 0\leqγ<1,\,\,\, {η\in \mathbb{H}^n,\,\,\,t>0,} \end{array}\end{equation*} on the Heisenberg groups ${\mathbb{H}}^n.$ There exists a critical exponent $$p_c=\max \{\frac{1}{\gamma },p_{\gamma }\}\in (0,+\infty ],with{p}_{\gamma }=1+\frac{2(2-\gamma )}{Q-2+2\gamma },Q=2n+2$$ such that for all $1<p\le p_c,$ no global solution exists regardless of the non-negative initial data, while for $p>p_c$, a global positive solution exists if the initial data is sufficiently small. The results obtained are a natural extension of the results of Cazenave et al. [Nonlinear Analysis 68 (2008), 862-874], where similar studies were carried out in ${\mathbb{R}}^n$. Also given are several theorems concerning the lifespan estimates of local solutions for different cases of initial data. The proofs of the main results are based on test function methods and Banach fixed point principle.
