Abstract
We consider a semilinear parabolic equation u t = Δu − c(x, t)u p for (x, t) ∈ Ω × (0, T) with nonlinear and nonlocal boundary condition u|∂Ω × [0,T] = ∫Ω k(x, y, t)u l dy and nonnegative initial data where p > 0 and l > 0. We first establish local existence theorem and comparison principle. Then we prove uniqueness of solutions with trivial initial datum for (p + 1)/2 < l < 1, with nonnegative initial data for l ≥ 1, with positive initial data under the conditions l < 1, p ≥ 1 as well as positive in solutions if max(p, l) < 1, nonuniqueness of solution with trivial initial datum for l < min{1, (p + 1)/2}.
