A sequence of integro-differential equations approximating a viscous porous medium equation (Q5938151): Difference between revisions

The author considers a sequence of particular integro-differential equations, whose solutions \(\rho_N\) converge as \(N\) tends to infinity to the solution \(\rho\) of a viscous porous medium equation. It is demonstrated that, under suitable regularity conditions, the functions \(\rho_N\) are smooth uniformly in \(N\). Moreover, the author derives an asymptotic expansion for \(\rho_N\) as \(N\) tends to infinity. It precisely describes the convergence to \(\rho\). The results of this paper could be useful, in particular, for the numerical simulation of viscous porous medium equation by particle method.
