Шаблон:Nihongo (born 7 December 1928 in Osaka) is a retired Japanese mathematician who worked in partial differential equations. He obtained his Ph.D. at the University of Tokyo, under the supervision of Tosio Kato.

Mathematical contributions

His most widely cited paper, published in 1966, studied the partial differential equation

<math>\frac{\partial u}{\partial t}=\frac{\partial^2u}{\partial x_1^2}+\cdots+\frac{\partial^2u}{\partial x_n^2}+u^p,</math>

and showed that there is a "threshold" value Шаблон:Math for which Шаблон:Math implies the existence of nonconstant solutions which exist for all positive Шаблон:Mvar and all real values of the Шаблон:Math variables. By contrast, if Шаблон:Mvar is between Шаблон:Math and Шаблон:Math then such solutions cannot exist. This paper initiated the study of similar and analogous phenomena for various parabolic and hyperbolic partial differential equations. The impact of Fujita's paper is described by the well-known survey articles of Levine (1990) and Deng & Levine (2000).

In collaboration with Kato, Fujita applied the semigroup approach in evolutionary partial differential equations to the Navier–Stokes equations of fluid mechanics. They found the existence of unique locally defined strong solutions under certain fractional derivative-based assumptions on the initial velocity. Their approach has been adopted by other influential works, such as Giga & Miyakawa (1985), to allow for different assumptions on the initial velocity. The full understanding of the smoothness and maximal extension of such solutions is currently considered as a major problem of partial differential equations and mathematical physics.
