Abstract

We study the Cauchy problem for a parabolic partial differentialequation with a power nonlinearity.It was shown in our previous paper that in some parameter range, the problemhas a time-local solution with prescribed moving singularities.Our concern in this paper is the existence of a time-global solution.By using a perturbed Haraux-Weissler equation, it is shown that there existsa forward self-similar solution with a moving singularity.Using this result, we also obtain a sufficient conditionfor the global existence of solutions with a moving singularity.
