As the parameter crosses critical values (e.g. the Steklov eigenvalues), it is known that there are large equilibria that arise through a bifurcation from infinity (i.e., such equilibria converge, after rescaling, to the Steklov eigenfunctions). We provide a compactification approach to the study of such unbounded bifurcation curves of equilibria, their stability, and heteroclinic orbits. In particular, we construct an induced semiflow at infinity such that the Steklov eigenfunctions are equilibria. Moreover, we prove the existence of infinite-time blow-up solutions that converge, after rescaling, to certain eigenfunctions that are equilibria of the induced semiflow at infinity.engAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/journal articleopen accessBlow-up in context of PDEsDynamical systems and ergodic theoryNonlinear parabolic equationsPartial differential equationsTopological dynamicsEcuaciones diferenciales1206.13 Ecuaciones Diferenciales en Derivadas Parciales
