Upper semicontinuity of attractors for the reaction diffusion equation. (English) Zbl 0906.35048

Summary: This paper deals with the reaction diffusion equation in domains \(\Omega= \mathbb{R}\) or \(\Omega= (-L,L)\) with \(L< \infty\). Let \({\mathcal A}_L\) and \({\mathcal A}\) be the global attractor of this equation corresponding to \(\Omega= (-L,L)\) and \(\Omega= \mathbb{R}\), respectively. It is shown that the global attractor \({\mathcal A}\) is upper semicontinuous at 0 with respect to the sets \(\{{\mathcal A}_L\}\) in some sense.
