Abstract

A first order nonlinear evolution equation is relaxed by means of a time convolution operator, with a kernel obtained by rescaling a given positive decreasing function. This relaxation produces an integrodifferential equation, whose formal limit, as the scaling parameter (or relaxation time) ε tends to zero, is the original equation. The relaxed equation is equivalent to the widely studied hyperbolic relaxation when the memory kernel, in particular, is the decreasing exponential. In this work, we establish general conditions which ensure that the longterm dynamics of the two evolution equations are, in some appropriate sense, close, when ε is small. Namely, we prove the existence of a robust family of exponential attractors for the related dissipative dynamical systems, which is stable with respect to the singular limit ε→0. The abstract result is then applied to Allen-Cahn and Cahn-Hilliard type equations.
