KW - Singularly perturbed, degenerate parabolic problem, Shishkin mesh.
AB - <p style="text-align: justify;">A singularly perturbed degenerate parabolic problem in one space
dimension is considered. Bounds on derivatives of the solution are proved;
these bounds depend on the two data parameters that determine how singularly
perturbed and how degenerate the problem is. A tensor product mesh
is constructed that is equidistant in time and of Shishkin type in space. A
finite difference method on this mesh is proved to converge; the rate of convergence
obtained depends on the degeneracy parameter but is independent of
the singular perturbation parameter. Numerical results are presented.</p>
