Abstract

This paper deals with the blowup behavior of the radially symmetric solution of the nonlinear heat equation ut = Δu + eu in ℝN. The authors show the nonexistence of type II blowup under radial symmetric case in the lower supercritical range 3 ≤ N ≤ 9, and give a sufficient condition for the occurrence of type I blowup. The result extends that of Fila and Pulkkinen (2008) in a finite ball to the whole space.
