Exponential convergence for ultrafast diffusion equations with log-concave weights

Abstract

We study the asymptotic behavior of a weighted ultrafast diffusion PDE on the real line, with a log-concave and log-lipschitz weight, and prove exponential convergence to equilibrium. This result goes beyond the compact setting studied in [22]. This equation is motivated by the gradient flow approach to the problem of quantization of measures introduced in [11].
