Zusammenfassung

We prove convergence of a sequence of weak solutions of the nonlocal Cahn-Hilliard equation to the strong solution of the corresponding local Cahn-Hilliard equation. The analysis is done in the case of suffi-ciently smooth bounded domains with Neumann boundary condition and a W1,1-kernel. The proof is based on the relative entropy method. Additionally, we prove the strong L2-convergence of the nonlocal operator to the negative Laplacian together with a rate of convergence.
