Description
Summary:(1) Background: This paper is devoted to the study of a class of semilinear initial boundary value problems of parabolic type. (2) Methods: We make use of fractional powers of analytic semigroups and the interpolation theory of compact linear operators due to Lions–Peetre. (3) Results: We give a functional analytic proof of the <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msup><mi>C</mi><mn>2</mn></msup></semantics></math></inline-formula> compactness of a bounded regular solution orbit for semilinear parabolic problems with Dirichlet, Neumann and Robin boundary conditions. (4) Conclusions: As an application, we study the dynamics of a population inhabiting a strongly heterogeneous environment that is modeled by a class of diffusive logistic equations with Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions.
