Abstract:
The initial boundary-value problem for the equation of ion-sound waves in a plasma is studied. A theorem on the nonextendable solution is proved. Sufficient conditions for the blow-up of the solution in finite time and the upper bound for the blow-up time are obtained using the method of test functions.
Keywords:blow-up of the solution, nonlinear initial boundary-value problem, Sobolev-type equation, exponential nonlinearity.
