On the finite time blow-up for filtration problems with nonlinear reaction
We present results for finite time blow-up for filtration problems with nonlinear reaction under appropriate assumptions on the nonlinearities and the initial data. In particular, we prove first finite time blow up of solutions subject to sufficiently large initial data provided that the reaction term "overpowers" the nonlinear diffusion in a certain sense. Secondly, under related assumptions on the nonlinearities, we show that initial data above positive stationary state solutions will always lead to finite time blow up.
