This paper is devoted to a new method for constructing approximations to the solution of a parabolic partial differential equation. The Cauchy problem for the heat equation on a straight line with a variable heat conduction coefficient is considered. In this paper, a sequence of functions is constructed that converges to the solution of the Cauchy problem uniformly in the spatial variable and locally uniformly in time. The functions that make up the sequence are explicitly expressed in terms of the initial condition and the thermal conductivity coefficient, i.e. through functions that play the role of parameters. When constructing functions that converge to the solution, ideas and methods of functional analysis are used, namely, Chernoff’s theorem on approximation of operator semigroups, which is why the constructed functions are called Chernoff approximations. In most previously published papers, the error (i. e., the norm of the difference between the exact solution and the Chernoff approximation with number n) does not exceed const/n. Therefore, approximations, when using which the error decreases to zero faster than const/n, we call fast convergent. This is exactly what the approximations constructed in this work are, as follows from the recently proved Galkin-Remizov theorem. Key formulas, explicit forms of constructed approximations, and proof schemes are given in the paper. The results obtained in this paper point the way to the construction of fast converging Chernoff approximations for a wider class of equations.
