Blow-up analysis for a reaction–diffusion equation with weighted nonlocal inner absorptions under nonlinear boundary flux

Abstract

A blow-up analysis for a nonlinear divergence form reaction–diffusion equation with weighted nonlocal inner absorption terms is considered under nonlinear boundary flux in a bounded star-shaped region. Based on the auxiliary function method and the modified differential inequality technique, we establish conditions on weight function and nonlinearities to guarantee the solution exists globally or blows up at finite time. Moreover, upper and lower bounds for the blow-up time are derived under appropriate measure in higher dimensional spaces. Three examples are presented to illustrate applications of our main results.
