Let $\Gamma=\{\gamma(\tau)\in R^N\times [0,T], \gamma(0)=(0,0)\}$ be $C^{0,1}$ -- space-time curve and continuos function $h(x,t)>0$ in $ R^N\times [0,T]\setminus \Gamma (h(x,t)=0$ on $\Gamma$). We investigate the behaviour as $k\to \infty$ of the fundamental solutions $u_k$ of equation $u_t-\Delta u+h(x,t)u^p=0$, $p>1$, satisfying singular initial condition $u_k(x,0)=k\delta_0$. The main problem is whether the limit $u_\infty$ is still a solution of the above equation with isolated point singularity at $(0,0)$, or singularity set of $u_\infty$ contains some part or all $\Gamma$.
Keywords: propagation of singularity., very singular solution, strong degenerate absorption, Semilinear parabolic equation.
