Abstract:
In this article, we consider a free boundary problem for a reaction diffusion
equation which describes the dynamics of single bacillus population in higher
space dimensions and heterogeneous environment. For simplicity, we assume
that the environment and solution are radially symmetric.
First, by using the contraction mapping theorem, we prove that the local solution
exists and is unique. Then, some sufficient conditions are given under which
the solution will blow up in finite time. Our results indicate that the
blowup occurs if the initial data are sufficiently large. Finally, the long time
behavior of the global solution is discussed. It is shown that the global
fast solution does exist if the initial data are sufficiently small,
while the global slow solution is possible if the initial data are suitably large.
