Abstract: We consider the Fast Diffusion Equation ut=Deltaum posed in a bounded smooth domain OmegasubsetRRd with homogeneous Dirichlet conditions; the exponent range is ms=(d2)+/(d+2)<m<1. It is known that bounded positive solutions u(t,x) of such problem extinguish in a finite time T, and also that such solutions approach a separate variable solution u(t,x)sim(Tt)1/(1m)S(x), as toT. Here we are interested in describing the behaviour of the solutions near the extinction time. We first show that the convergence u(t,x),(Tt)1/(1m) to S(x) takes place uniformly in the relative error norm. Then, we study the question of rates of convergence of the rescaled flow. For m close to 1 we get such rates by means of entropy methods and weighted Poincar'e inequalities. The analysis of the latter point makes an essential use of fine properties of the associated stationary elliptic problem in the limit mo1, and such a study has an independent interest.
