Abstract

This work investigates the initial conditions for a classical quasilinear parabolic equation with exponential nonlinearity such that blowup is developed. This is a very old question in parabolic partial differential equations because it corresponds, for example, to the question of blowup that develops in a thermal runaway. Very definite criteria are given for the initial conditions under which blowup develops.
