The nonlinear heat equation on W-random graphs

For systems of coupled differential equations on a sequence of W-random graphs, we derive the continuum limit in the form of an evolution integral equation. We prove that solutions of the initial value problems (IVPs) for the discrete model converge to the solution of the IVP for its continuum limit. These results combined with the analysis of nonlocally coupled deterministic networks in [9] justify the continuum (thermodynamic) limit for a large class of coupled dynamical systems on convergent families of graphs.
