Abstract

In this paper, by means of the energy method, we first study the existence and asymptotic estimates of global solution of quasilinear parabolic equations involving p-Laplacian (p>2) and critical Sobolev exponent and lower energy initial value in a bounded domain in RN(N3), and also study the sufficient conditions of finite time blowup of local solution by the classical concave method. Finally, we study the asymptotic behavior of any global solutions u(x,t;u0) which may possess high energy initial value function u0(x). We can prove that there exists a time subsequence {tn} such that the asymptotic behavior of u(x,tn;u0) as tn is similar to the Palais–Smale sequence of stationary equation of the above parabolic problem.
