Abstract:
In the present paper, we study the Cauchy-Dirichlet problem to a nonlocal nonlinear diffusion equation with polynomial nonlinearities $$\mathcal{D}_{0|t}^{\alpha }u+(-\Delta)^s_pu=\gamma|u|^{m-1}u+\mu|u|^{q-2}u,\,\gamma,\mu\in\mathbb{R},\,m>0,q>1,$$ involving time-fractional Caputo derivative $\mathcal{D}_{0|t}^{\alpha}$ and space-fractional $p$-Laplacian operator $(-\Delta)^s_p$. We give a simple proof of the comparison principle for the considered problem using purely algebraic relations, for different sets of $\gamma,\mu,m$ and $q$. The Galerkin approximation method is used to prove the existence of a local weak solution. The blow-up phenomena, existence of global weak solutions and asymptotic behavior of global solutions are classified using the comparison principle.
