We prove that any positive solution of \prttu-Δu+uq=0 (q>1) in \BBRN\ti(0,∞) with initial trace (F,0), where F is a closed subset of \BBRN can be estimated from above and below and up to two universal multiplicative constants, by a series involving the Bessel capacity C2/q,q'. As a consequence we prove that there exists a unique positive solution of the equation with such an initial trace. We also characterize the blow-up set of u(x,t) when t\downarrow 0, by using the "density" of F expressed in terms of the C2/q,q'-capacity.
