%0 Journal Article %T Decay of mass for nonlinear equation with fractional Laplacian %A Ahmad Fino %A Grzegorz Karch %J Mathematics %D 2008 %I arXiv %X The large time behavior of nonnegative solutions to the reaction-diffusion equation $\partial_t u=-(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}u - u^p,$ $(\alpha\in(0,2], p>1)$ posed on $\mathbb{R}^N$ and supplemented with an integrable initial condition is studied. We show that the anomalous diffusion term determines the large time asymptotics for $p>1+{\alpha}/{N},$ while nonlinear effects win if $p\leq1+{\alpha}/{N}.$ %U http://arxiv.org/abs/0812.4977v1
