Abstract:
In this paper we investigate the behavior of the solution of \[ \begin {array}{*{20}{c}} {{u_t} = D{u_{xx}} - f{{(u)}_x},} \\ {u(0,x) = {u_0}(x) \in {L^\infty },\qquad u(t, \pm L) = {u^ \pm },} \\ \end {array} \] where $t \geqslant 0$ and $x \in [ - L,L]$. Solutions of this equation are considered to be approximations to the solutions of the corresponding parabolic conservation laws. We obtain decay results on the norms of the difference between the solution for $L$ infinite and the solution when $L$ is finite.References
