No local $L^{1}$ solutions for semilinear fractional heat equations (1606.07145v1)

Abstract: We study the Cauchy problem for the semilinear fractional heat equation $u_{t}=\triangle^{\alpha/2}u+f(u)$ with non-negative initial value $u_{0}\in L^{q}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$ and locally Lipschitz, non-negative source term $f$. For $f$ satisfying the Osgood-type condition $\int_{1}^{\infty}\frac{ds}{f(s)}=\infty$, we show that there exist initial conditions such that the equation has no local solution in $L^{1}_{loc}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$.
