We consider the diffusion equation in the setting of operator theory. In particular, we study the characterization of the limit of the diffusion operator for diffusivities approaching zero on a subdomain Ω1 of the domain of integration of Ω. We generalize Lions' results to covering the case of diffusivities which are piecewise C1 up to the boundary of Ω1 and Ω2, where Ω2 := Ω∖ Ω1 instead of piecewise constant coefficients. In addition, we extend both Lions' and our previous results by providing the strong convergence of (A_pν-1)ν∈ ℕ^∗, for a monotonically decreasing sequence of diffusivities (pν)ν∈ ℕ^∗.
