Abstract Parabolic Evolution Equations and Łojasiewicz–Simon Inequality I

The classical Łojasiewicz gradient inequality (1963) was extended by Simon (1983) to the infinite-dimensional setting, now called the Łojasiewicz–Simon gradient inequality. This book presents a unified method to show asymptotic convergence of solutions to a stationary solution for abstract parabolic evolution equations of the gradient form by utilizing this Łojasiewicz–Simon gradient inequality. In order to apply the abstract results to a wider class of concrete nonlinear parabolic equations, th
