Abstract

Some convergence and stability results for rational approximations of holomorphic semigroups are presented. The approximations are related to time discrete schemes with nonuniform stepsize to a linear evolution equation of parabolic type in a Banach space. Our theorems cover not only the backward Euler but also the Crank-Nicolson and forward Euler schemes.
