The Cauchy problem for the nonlinear heat equation is known to admit a unique weak solution u ∊ c([0,∞) ; L1(IR)) for every nonnegatie u0 ∊ L1(IR) if the parameter m is positive. It has recently been proved that for m≤–1, no solution of (P) in IR∗(0,T), T>0, can have finite mass, i.e. u(.,t) ∊ L1(IR), at any t ∊ (0,T). We show existence of a finite mass solution in the remaining range 0≤m<–1. Uniqueness is not true in general; it happens that our solution is in fact the maximal solution and can be uniquely characterized through a number of different and simple criteria. The results are then extended to treat nonnegative initial data in
