The authors of this paper study singular phenomena(vanishing and blowing-up in finite time) of solutions to the homogeneous $\hbox{Dirichlet}$ boundary value problem of nonlinear diffusion equations involving $p(x)$-\hbox{Laplacian} operator and a nonlinear source. The authors discuss how the value of the variable exponent $p(x)$ and initial energy(data) affect the properties of solutions. At the same time, we obtain the critical extinction and blow-up exponents of solutions.
