Nonharmonic solutions of Laplace's equation

Here's a counterexample in $n\ge3$ dimensions. With $\lVert\cdot\rVert$ denoting the Euclidean norm, set $$ f(x)=\begin{cases} x_1x_2x_3\lVert x\rVert^{-n-4},&{\rm if\ }x\not=0,\cr 0,&{\rm if\ }x=0. \ …

Unconditional nonexistence for the heat equation with rapidly growing data?

It is true that for any initial datum $u_0\in C^\infty(\mathbb{R})$ there exists a solution $u\in C^\infty(\mathbb{R}^+\times\mathbb{R})$ to the heat equation with initial condition $u(0,x)=u_0(x)$. A …
