Global existence and asymptotic behavior of solutions to fractional ( p , q )-Laplacian equations

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to consider the following fractional parabolic problem u t + ( − Δ ) p α u + ( − Δ ) q β u = f ( x , u ) ( x , t ) ∈ Ω × ( 0 , ∞ ) , u = 0 ( x , t ) ∈ ( R N ∖ Ω ) × ( 0 , ∞ ) , u ( x , 0 ) = u 0 ( x ) x ∈ Ω , where Ω ⊂ R N is a bounded domain with Lipschitz boundary, ( − Δ ) p α is the fractional p-Laplacian with 0 < α < 1 < p < ∞, ( − Δ ) q β is the fractional q-Laplacian with 0 < β < α < 1 < q < p < ∞, r > 1 and λ > 0. The global existence of nonnegative solutions is obtained by combining the Galerkin approximations with the potential well theory. Then, by virtue of a differential inequality technique, we give a decay estimate of solutions.
