Positivity of solutions to the Cauchy problem for linear and semilinear biharmonic heat equations

Abstract: This paper is concerned with the positivity of solutions to the Cauchy problem for linear and nonlinear parabolic equations with the biharmonic operator as fourth order elliptic principal part. Generally, Cauchy problems for parabolic equations of fourth order have no positivity preserving property due to the change of sign of the fundamental solution. One has eventual local positivity for positive initial data, but on short time scales, one will in general have also regions of negativity.The first goal of thi… Show more

“…On the other hand, we are con dent the tools introduced here may reveal useful also in di erent higher order contexts, such as parabolic problems, in the study of the sign of solutions to quasilinear equations and in the higher order fractional Laplacian setting [4,8,14]. This research started in 2010 when Theorem Notation.…”

“…For the fractional Laplacian, that is for α ∈ (0, 1), the positivity is obtained directly from the fractional heat kernels, as shown in [36,Section 2]. In all other cases we can only expect (local) eventual positivity, unless we restrict to special classes of initial conditions as shown in [26].…”
