      We study the behavior as \(t\to\infty\) of the fundamental solution \(G(x,s,t)\) to the Cauchy problem for the parabolic equation \[ G_t+(-1)^n{\partial^{2n}G\over\partial x^{2n}}+ a(x)G=0,\;x\in\mathbb{R}^1,\;t>0,\;G(x,s,0)= \delta(x-s),\;x,s\in\mathbb{R}^1. \] It is assumed that the coefficient \(a(x)\) as \(x\to\pm\infty\) is expanded into an asymptotic series of the form \[ a(x)= a^\pm_{2n}x^{-2n}+ \sum^\infty_{j=1} a^\pm_{2n+j}|x|^{-\mu^\pm_j},\quad x\to\pm\infty, \] where \(\mu^\pm_j>2n\) and \(\mu^\pm_j\uparrow\infty\) as \(j\to+\infty\). The main result is the construction and substantiation of an asymptotic expansion for \(G(x,s,t)\) as \(t\to\infty\) to an accuracy of any power \(r^{-1}\), uniformly with respect to all \((x,s)\).
