Higher-Order Time Asymptotics Of Fast Diffusion In Euclidean Space

Quantifies the speed of convergence and higher-order asymptotics of fast diffusion dynamics on $\mathbf{R}^n$ to the Barenblatt (self similar) solution. Degeneracies in the parabolicity of this equation are cured by re-expressing the dynamics on a manifold with a cylindrical end, called the cigar. The nonlinear evolution becomes differentiable in Holder spaces on the cigar.
