On the stability and the attraction domain of the stationary solution of a singularly perturbed parabolic equation with a multiple root of the degenerate equation

We construct and justify the asymptotics of a boundary layer solution of a boundary value problem for a singularly perturbed second-order ordinary differential equation for the case in which the degenerate (finite) equation has an identically double root. A specific feature of the asymptotics is the presence of a three-zone boundary layer. The solution of the boundary value problem is a stationary solution of the corresponding parabolic equation. We prove the asymptotic stability of this solution and find its attraction domain.
