Inequality of ODE

$begingroup$


Suppose $u(t)>0$ satisfies following inequality, how do we solve $u$?
$$u^{'}(t)leq a cdot u^{frac{n+2}{n}}(t)$$
for $tgeq 0$. This seems a little different from Gronwall's inequality, how do we find inequality of $u(t)$, you can add some conditions to $u$ if you want. Thanks for any help.

    This bound is only valid until its singularity, even if there is a real branch of the root after that, it does no longer relate to $u$.

We first take note of a few simple facts concerning $1 le n in Bbb N$:



$dfrac{n + 2}{n} = 1 + dfrac{2}{n}; tag 1$



set



$k = dfrac{2}{n}; tag 2$



then



$dfrac{n + 2}{n} = 1 + k; tag 3$



$u'(t) le au^{1 + k}; tag 3$



$u^{-k - 1} u'(t) le a; tag 4$



$(-dfrac{1}{k} u^{-k})' le a; tag 5$



we next integrate 'twixt $t_0$ and $t > t_0$:



$-dfrac{1}{k}u^{-k}(t) + dfrac{1}{k}u^{-k}(t_0) = displaystyle int_{t_0}^t (-dfrac{1}{k} u^{-k}(s))' ; ds le a(t - t_0); tag 6$



$-dfrac{1}{k}u^{-k}(t) + dfrac{1}{k}u^{-k}(t_0) le a(t - t_0); tag 7$



$-dfrac{1}{k}u^{-k}(t) le a(t - t_0) - dfrac{1}{k}u^{-k}(t_0) ; tag 8$



$u^{-k}(t) ge u^{-k}(t_0) -ka(t - t_0); tag 9$



since



$u(t) > 0, tag{10}$



it follows that the both sides of (9) are positive for $t$ sufficiently close to $t_0$, and always if $t > t_0$ provided $a le 0$; hence for such $t$,



$0 < u^k(t) le (u^{-k}(t_0) -ka(t - t_0))^{-1} = dfrac{1}{u^{-k}(t_0) -ka(t - t_0)} = dfrac{u^k(t_0) }{1 -ku^k(t_0)a(t - t_0)}, tag{11}$



whence



$0 < u(t) le ((u^{-k}(t_0) -ka(t - t_0))^{-1/k} = dfrac{1}{sqrt[k]{u^{-k}(t_0) -ka(t - t_0)}} = dfrac{u(t_0) }{sqrt[k]{1 - ku^k(t_0)a(t - t_0)}}. tag{12}$



Inspection of (12) reveals that



$displaystyle lim_{t to infty} u(t) = 0, ; a < 0, tag{13}$



whereas the limit, if one exists, is not determined from (12) if $a ge 0$. In fact, a singularity is encountered as



$t to t_0 + dfrac{1}{k u^k(t_0)a} tag{14}$



from below. The situation as $t to -infty$ is similar, with the cases $a < 0$, $a ge 0$ interchanged.
