Existence and non-existence of Blow-up solutions for a non-autonomous   problem with indefinite and gradient terms
  We deal with existence and non-existence of non-negative entire solutions that blow-up at infinity for a quasilinear problem depending on a non-negative real parameter. Our main objectives in this paper are to provide far more general conditions for existence and non-existence of solutions. To this end, we explore an associated $\mu$-parameter convective ground state problem, sub and super solutions method combined and an approximation arguments to show existence of solutions. To show the result of non-existence of solutions, we follow an idea due to Mitidieri-Pohozaev.
