Strong connections between equation (1) and the forced Burgers equation with positive frequency \\((m\\geq 0)\\),  \\[ \\frac {\\partial u}{\\partial t}= \\frac{\\partial^2u} {\\partial x^2}-u \\frac {\\partial u}{\\partial x}+ mu+k(x), \\tag{2} \\]  are established through the Hopf-Cole transformation. Equation (2) is a prime prototype of the large class of quasi-linear parabolic equations given by  \\[ \\frac{\\partial v} {\\partial t}=\\frac {\\partial^2v}{\\partial x^2}+ \\frac{\\partial\\bigl(f(v) \\bigr)} {\\partial x}+g(v)+h(x). \\tag{3} \\]  A compact attractor and an inertial manifold for the forced Burgers equation are shown to exist via the Kwak transformation. Consequently, existence of an inertial manifold for the convective diffusion equation is guaranteed."},"provenance":{"prov:generatedAtTime":"2025-07-22T17:15:52Z","prov:wasAttributedTo":"MaRDI Knowledge Graph"}}
