Smooth dynamics properties of a non-local evolution equation (Q6154505)

The authors consider the equation \[ \partial_tu(x,t)+h(x)u(x,t)+g\big(K_Ju(x,t) \big)=f(x,u(x,t)), \] for \(x\in \Omega, \ t>0\), with initial condition at \(t=0\), where \(\Omega\) is a bounded domain in \(\mathbb{R}^N\), \(N\ge 1\), \(h:\overline{\Omega}\to \mathbb{R}\) is a continuously differentiable function with \[ h(x)\ge h_*>0, \ \ \partial_{x_i}h(x)\ge h_*>0, \ x\in \Omega, \] for all \(i\in \{1, \cdots ,N\}.\) The function \(f:\Omega \times \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}\) is twice continuously differentiable, and \(f\) and its partial derivatives are sublinear. The function \(g:\mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}\) is twice continuously differentiable and \(f, \ f'\) are sublinear. The integral operator \(K_J\) is defined by \[ K_Jv(x)=\int_{\Omega}J(x,y)v(y)\, dy, \] with nonnegative and symmetric kernel \(J\). The model is associated with the nonlocal diffusive effect and Ising spin systems. The authors study the continuity and other features of the global attractors of the above evolution equation. They make use of symmetric Hausdorff distance with respect to the functional parameters \(f\) and \(h\).
