โฆ Synopsis
We study the limiting behavior of the solution of
with a Neumann boundary condition or an appropriate Dirichlet condition. The analysis is based on "energy methods". We assume that the initial data has a "transition layer structure", i.e., u' = f 1 except near finitely many transition points. We show that, in the limit as c + 0, the solution maintains its transition layer structure, and the transition points move slower than any power of e . Our work is closely related to that of Neu [ 221, Cam and Peg0 [ 5 1, [ 6 1, and Fusco and Hale [ 1 I], [ 121. Neu uses the method of matched asymptotic expansions
