Abstract

In this article, we study the asymptotic behaviour of solutions to the nonlocal operator u t (x, t) = (−1) n−1 (J * Id − 1) n (u(x, t)), x ∈ ℝ N , which is the nonlocal analogous to the higher order local evolution equation v t = (−1) n−1(Δ) n v. We prove that the solutions of the nonlocal problem converge to the solution of the higher order problem with the right-hand side given by powers of the Laplacian when the kernel J is rescaled in an appropriate way. Moreover, we prove that solutions to both equations have the same asymptotic decay rate as t goes to infinity.
