AbstractIn this paper we extend a theorem of Mallet-Paret and Sell for the existence of an inertial manifold for a scalar-valued reaction diffusion equation to new physical domains ωn ⊂ Rn, n = 2,3. For their result the Principle of Spatial Averaging (PSA), which certain domains may possess, plays a key role for the existence of an inertial manifold. Instead of the PSA, we define a weaker PSA and prove that the domains φn with appropriate boundary conditions for the Laplace operator, δ, satisfy a weaker PSA. This weaker PSA is enough to ensure the existence of an inertial manifold for a specific class of scalar-valued reaction diffusion equations on each domain ωn under suitable conditions.

Abstract In this paper, the blow-up analyses in nonlocal reaction diffusion equations with time-dependent coefficients are investigated under Neumann boundary conditions. By constructing some suitable auxiliary functions and using differential inequality techniques, we show some sufficient conditions to ensure that the solution u ( x , t ) u(x,t) blows up at a finite time under appropriate measure sense. Furthermore, an upper and a lower bound on blow-up time are derived under some appropriate assumptions. At last, two examples are presented to illustrate the application of our main results.
