Fast reaction limit and forward-backward diffusion: A Radon–Nikodym approach

We consider two singular limits: a fast reaction limit with a non-monotone nonlinearity and a regularization of the forward-backward diffusion equation. We derive pointwise identities satisfied by the Young measure generated by these problems. As a result, we obtain an explicit formula for the Young measure even without the non-degeneracy assumption used in the previous works. The main new idea is an application of the Radon–Nikodym theorem to decompose the Young measure.
