  7. Abstract:
  8. In this thesis , we consider nonnegative (continuous) weak solutions of the porous medium equation with source , u_t-∆u^m=u^p, and p>m>1 .
    Assume that, m>1 and 1< p/m u_t-∆u^m=u^p,xϵR^n ,tϵR
    has no nontrivial, bounded radial solutions u≥0 .
    In one space-dimensional, the conclusion of the result mentioned above remains true without the assumption of the radial symmetry. The proof is based on the intersection-comparison arguments , zero number argum- ents and a key step is to show the positivity of possible bounded radial entire solutions . As an auxiliary result, we established pointwise gradient estimates for bounded, radial nonnegative solutions of the equation u_t-∆u^m=u^p .
