Published 25 Nov 2025 in math.AP | (2511.20451v1)
Abstract: We consider the nonlinear heat equations with Neumann boundary conditions {ut=Δuamp;inR<em>+<sup>4</sup>×(0,T),−dx</em>4du(x~,0,t)=u<sup>2(x~,</sup>0,t)amp;inR<sup>3</sup>×(0,T). We establish the existence of a finite-time blow-up solution. Specifically, for any sufficiently small $T>0$ and any k distinct points q1,…,qk∈R<sup>3, there exists an initial datum u0 such that the corresponding solution u(x,t) blows up exactly at q1,…,qk as t↗T. Furthermore, when t↗T, the solution admits the asymptotic profile u(x,t)=j=1∑<sup>kUμ<em>j(t),ξ</em>j(t)(x)+Z0<sup>∗(x)+o(1)</sup></sup>ast↗T, where Uμ<em>j(t),ξ</em>j(t)(x):=μ<em>j<sup>−1(t)</sup>U(μ<em>j(t)x−ξ</em>j(t)),x∈R</em>+<sup>4, and Z0<sup>∗∈</sup>C0<sup>∞(R+<sup>4) satisfying $$Z_{0}<sup>{*}(q_{j},0)<0\quad</sup> \text{for all}\ j=1,\dots,k.$$ Here, U(y) denotes the harmonic extension to R<em>+<sup>4 of the positive radially symmetric solution U to the fractional Yamabe problem (−Δ)<sup>21</sup>U=U<sup>2 in R<sup>3. For some constants $β</em>{j}>0$, the scaling parameters μj(t) and the translation parameters ξ<em>j(t) satisfy μ</em>j(t)=β<em>j∣log(T−t)∣<sup>2∣log2T∣(T−t)(1</sup>+o(1))→0,ξ</em>j(t)→(qj,0)ast↗T.
