Convergence of solutions of a one-phase Stefan problem with Neumann boundary data to a self-similar profile

Danielle Hilhorst, Sabrina Roscani, Piotr Rybka

Abstract

We study a one-dimensional one-phase Stefan problem with a Neumann boundary condition on the fixed part of the boundary. We construct the unique self-similar solution, and show that starting from arbitrary initial data, solution orbits converge to the self-similar solution.

Key Result

Theorem 1

Suppose that $(u_0, b_0)$ satisfies the conditions Let $(u,s)$ be the corresponding solution of Problem (NSP). Then, 1) $\lim\limits_{t\to\infty}s(t)/\sqrt{t+1} = \omega$; 2) ${\lim\limits_{t\to\infty}\sup_{x/\sqrt{t+1}\in[0,\omega]} \left| u(x,t) - U\left(\frac{x}{\sqrt{t+1}}\right)\right|} =0.$
