Abstract
The subject of this research is the presentation of a model for studying the integration of migration flows with the resident population. The basic element for social cohesion is the cultural level of the people involved. In this study, we hypothesize a similarity between diffusion laws of the heat and culture, represented respectively by equations on the knowledge and temperature. The integration of migration flows is described by the use of the Cahn-Hilliard equation.
