The finite time blow-up for Caputo-Hadamard fractional diffusion equation involving nonlinear memory

Abstract

In this article, we focus on the blow-up problem of solution to Caputo-Hadamard fractional diffusion equation with fractional Laplacian and nonlinear memory. By virtue of the fundamental solutions of the corresponding linear and nonhomogeneous equation, we introduce a mild solution of the given equation and prove the existence and uniqueness of local solution. Next, the concept of a weak solution is presented by the test function and the mild solution is demonstrated to be a weak solution. Finally, based on the contraction mapping principle, the finite time blow-up and global solution for the considered equation are shown and the Fujita critical exponent is determined. The finite time blow-up of solution is also confirmed by the results of numerical experiment.
