On the Cauchy problem for a semi-linear hyperdissipative heat equation

Abstract

The paper is concerned with the Cauchy problem for a semi-linear hyperdissipative heat equation in Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces which is related to the generalized Gauss-Weierstrass semi-group via Duhamel's principle. Using caloric smoothing properties of the semi-group we prove existence and uniqueness of mild and strong solutions which are local in time. Moreover, we study well-posedness of the problem.
