The Super-Diffusive Singular Perturbation Problem

Abstract

In this paper we study a class of singularly perturbed defined abstract Cauchy problems. We investigate the singular perturbation problem ( P ϵ ) ϵ α D t α u ϵ ( t ) + u ϵ ′ ( t ) = A u ϵ ( t ) , t ∈ [ 0 , T ] , 1 < α < 2 , ϵ > 0 , for the parabolic equation ( P ) u 0 ′ ( t ) = A u 0 ( t ) , t ∈ [ 0 , T ] , in a Banach space, as the singular parameter goes to zero. Under the assumption that A is the generator of a bounded analytic semigroup and under some regularity conditions we show that problem ( P ϵ ) has a unique solution u ϵ ( t ) for each small ϵ > 0 . Moreover u ϵ ( t ) converges to u 0 ( t ) as ϵ → 0 + , the unique solution of equation ( P ) .
