We study solutions to the Cauchy problem for a semilinear parabolic equation with a nonlinearity which is critical in the sense of Joseph and Lundgren and establish the rate of convergence to regular steady states. In the critical case, this rate contains a logarithmic term which does not appear in

It is shown that there exists a critical exponent p \* > 1 for the bipolar blowup in the following sense. If 1 < p โค p \* , then there exist arbitrarily small initial data such that the solution exhibits the bipolar blowup, whereas if p > p \* , then the bipolar blowup does not occur for any suffici
The blowup of solutions of the Cauchy problem { u t =u xx + |u| p&1 u u(x, 0)=u 0 (x) in R\\_(0, ), in R is studied. Let 4 k be the set of functions on R which change sign k times. It is shown that for p k =1+2ร(k+1), k=0, 1, 2, ... , any solution with u 0 # 4 k blows up in finite time if 1 p k . T
