We consider a Cauchy problem of unidimensional nonlinear diffusion equation on finite interval. This problem is ill-posed and its approximate solution is unstable. We apply the He's homotopy perturbation method (HPM) and obtain the third-order asymptotic expansion. We show that if the conductivity term in diffusion equation has a specified condition, the above solution can be estimated. Finally, a numerical experiment is provided to illustrate the method.
