Popis: In this paper, we study some qualitative properties for an evolution problem that combines local and nonlocal diffusion operators acting in two different subdomains and, coupled in such a way that, the resulting evolution problem is the gradient flow of an energy functional. The coupling takes place at the interface between the regions in which the different diffusions take place. We prove existence and uniqueness results, as well as, that the model preserves the total mass of the initial condition. We also study the asymptotic behavior of the solutions. Finally, we show a suitable way to recover the heat equation at the whole domain from taking the limit at the nonlocal rescaled kernel.
