Smooth Homogenization of Heat Equations on Tubular Neighborhoods
Abstract
Description
We consider the heat equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions on the tubular neighborhood of a closed Riemannian submanifold. We show that, as the tube diameter tends to zero, a suitably rescaled and renormalized semigroup converges to a limit semigroup in Sobolev spaces of arbitrarily large Sobolev index.
