On the global solvability of semilinear parabolic systems with mixed right-hand side. (English. Russian original) Zbl 1074.35045
Function spaces, approximations, and differential equations. Collected papers dedicated to Oleg Vladimirovich Besov on his 70th birthday. Transl. from the Russian. Moscow: Maik Nauka/Interperiodika. Proceedings of the Steklov Institute of Mathematics 243, 59-79 (2003); translation from Tr. Mat. Inst. Steklova 243, 66-86 (2003).
The aim of the paper is to study the global solvability of the problem $u_t - L_1 u \geq b_1(t,x) u^P v^Q, \quad v_t - L_2 v \geq b_2(t,x) u^R v^S,$
$( u(t,x) \geq 0, \;v(t,x) \geq 0; \;x \in \mathbb R^N,\;t \geq 0)$
$u(0,x) = u_0(x) \geq 0, \quad v(0,x) = v_0(x) \geq 0$ with $$P,Q,R,S \geq 0$$, where $$L_1$$, $$L_2$$ are second order elliptic differential operators in space variables with measurable coefficients and $$b_1, \; b_2$$ are positive measurable functions. The solution is understood in the weak sense defined by means of an integral inequality. It is called degenerate if $$uv=0$$ a.e. The author proves that the problem has no global nondegenerate nonnegative solutions if certain suppositions (too complicated to be formulated here) hold true.
The paper is organized as follows. Section 1 is devoted to the model problem $$L_1 = L_2 = \Delta$$, $$b_1 = b_2 = 1$$, in section 2 the general case is considered and in section 3 some examples are given. According to the author’s remark a complete list of references can be found in the survey [K. Deng and H. A. Levine, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 243, 85–126 (200; Zbl 0942.35025)] and in the monograph [E. Mitidieri and S. I. Pokhozhaev, A priori estimates and blow-up of solutions to nonlinear partial differential equations and inequalities, Tr. Mat. Inst. Steklova 234 (2001; Zbl 0987.35002)]
