What is the fundamental solution for the backward heat equation?

According to the theorem of Malgrange and Ehrenpreis a fundamental solution exists for any PDE with constant coefficients. But I didn't manage to find in the literature an explicit formula for the ...

All $L^pL^q$ estimates for the heat equation on $\mathbb R$ (with gain of derivatives)

I have asked this question on MSE, but this is a better place. The heat equation and the heat kernel. Consider the heat equation on $\mathbb R$: $$ \left\{\begin{aligned}u_t-\Delta u&=f\\u(0,x)&...

Linear PDE, analytic continuation, Green's function and boundary conditions

I'm looking at the linear PDE in 3+1 dimensions, $$ \left[ -(\partial_t - \xi)^2 - \partial_k \partial_k \right] \phi(t,x) = 4\pi^2 \delta(t)\delta(x)\label{1} \tag{1} $$ Where $\xi$ is generally a ...

Has this form of the heat equation been solved for the radiation boundary condition

Below is a solution to a special form of the heat equation. I have found the postings on the heat equation and they are far above my head. I tried to find a tag on Transport Theory for both heat and ...

Approach to solve a coupled system of PDE (heat transfer in cylindrical coordinates)

I have the following two PDEs, which describe steady-state coupled heat transport between an externally heated axisymmetric solid body (Eq. 1, $T(r,z)$) and a fluid (Eq. 2, $t(z)$) flowing inside it: ...

Lack of exponential $L^2_{t,x}$ decay for a heat equation with growing coefficients

Edit: I have changed the nature of the question, but in order to have a better idea of what I can expect for the original problem (see below). Given $T>0$ and $n \in \bf Z$, consider the following ...

Schauder regularity heat equation

Let $m \in \mathbb{N}\setminus \{0,1\}$, $\alpha \in ]0,1[$. Let $\Omega$ be a bounded open subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ of class $C^{m,\alpha}$. It is known that if $f \in C^{\frac{m-2+\alpha}{2},m-2+\...

Critical spaces and energy estimate in NS equation [closed]

There is a ‘rescaling transformation’ that is particularly significant for the Navier–Stokes equations when they are posed on the whole space, but is also important in the local regularity theory. ...

$C^{1,2}$ regularity of (weak) solutions to the heat equation

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded Lipschitz domain (smoother if needed), and consider the heat equation $$u_t - \Delta u = 0$$ $$\frac{\partial u(t,x)}{\partial \nu(x)} = a(t,x) - b(t,x)u(t,x)$$ $$u(0) = u_0$$...

The hypoellipticity of a heat-like operator

I am aware that the heat operator (on a smooth manifold) is hypoelliptic. I am also aware that there are manifolds on which the Schrödinger's operator (with a $\Bbb i = \sqrt {-1}$ multiplying $\frac {...
