Asymptotic analysis for blow-up solutions in parabolic equations involving variable exponents

In this article, we consider non-negative solutions of the homogeneous Dirichlet problems of parabolic equations with local or nonlocal nonlinearities, involving variable exponents. We firstly obtain the necessary and sufficient conditions on the existence of blow-up solutions, and also obtain some Fujita-type conditions in bounded domains. Secondly, the blow-up rates are determined, which are described completely by the maximums of the variable exponents. Thirdly, we show that the blow-up occurs only at a single point for the equations with local nonlinearities, and in the whole domain for nonlocal nonlinearities.
