Abstract

Owing to the Rosenau argument in Physical Review A, 46 (1992), pag. 12-15, originally proposed to obtain a regularized version of the Chapman-Enskog expansion of hydrodynamics, we introduce a non-local linear kinetic equation which approximates a fractional diffusion equation. We then show that the solution to this approximation, apart of a rapidly vanishing in time perturbation, approaches the fundamental solution of the fractional diffusion (a L\'evy stable law) at large times.
