Abstract

We study the large time behavior of nonnegative solutions to the Cauchy problem for a fast diffusion equation with critical zero order absorption∂tu−Δum+uq=0in(0,∞)×RN, with mc:=(N−2)+/N<m<1 and q=m+2/N. Given an initial condition u0 decaying arbitrarily fast at infinity, we show that the asymptotic behavior of the corresponding solution u is given by a Barenblatt profile with a logarithmic scaling, thereby extending a previous result requiring a specific algebraic lower bound on u0. A by-product of our analysis is the derivation of sharp gradient estimates and a universal lower bound, which have their own interest and hold true for general exponents q>1.
