The paper is concerned with a nonlinear boundary value problem for the singularly perturbed heat equation \[ \partial T(x,t)/\partial t= \varepsilon\partial^2 T(x,t)/\partial x^2 \] in the domain \(M_t= \{(x,t):kT< x< N_2(t), 0<t\leq 1\}\) with moving boundaries, where \(k>0\), \(N_2(t)\) is a continuous function, and \(\varepsilon\) is a small dimensionless parameter. Basing on the asymptotic expansion of the Green function for the related linear boundary value problem and using the method of boundary integral equations, the authors construct the asymptotic expansion (as \(\varepsilon\to 0\)) of the desired solution \(T(x,t)\) in powers of the small parameter \(\varepsilon\) in the boundary layer \(x- kt= O(\varepsilon^p)\), \(p>1\), joining the linearly time-variable boundary of \(M_t\). As a result, they explicitly calculate the first three coefficients of the asymptotic expansion of \(T(x,t)\).
