    Abstract

    We study the asymptotic behavior of solutions of the Cauchy problem for a functional partial differential equation with a small parameter as the parameter tends to zero. We establish a convergence theorem in which the limit problem is identified with the Cauchy problem for a nonlinear parabolic partial differential equation. We also present comparison and existence results for the Cauchy problem for the functional partial differential equation and the limit problem.
