We consider a parabolic partial differential equation with power nonlinearity. Our concern is the existence of a singular solution whose singularity becomes anomalous in finite time. First we study the structure of singular radial solutions for an equation derived by backward self-similar variables. Using this, we obtain a singular backward self-similar solution whose singularity becomes stronger or weaker than that of a singular steady state.

Keywords: critical exponent., Semilinear parabolic equation, backward self-similar solution, singular solution.
