Abstract

Consider the family ut = Δu + G(u), t > 0, x ∈ Ωε (Eε) ∂νε u = 0, t > O, x ∈ ∂ Ωε of semilinear Neumann boundary value problems, where, for ε > 0 small, the set Ωε is a thin domain in ℝl, possibly with holes, which collapses, as ε → 0+, onto a (curved) k-dimensional submanifold of ℝl. If G is dissipative, then equation (Eepsi;) has a global attractor Aε. We identify a "limit" equation for the family (Eε), prove convergence of trajectories and establish an upper semicontinuity result for the family Aε as ε → 0+.
