Abstract
In this lecture I will try to present a certain view of the progress achieved in recent years on the subject of asymptotic behaviour of nonlinear parabolic equations. This is an enormously rich field since we can play with the domain, the initial data, the boundary data and the form of the equation. Therefore, a selection of the topics to treat is necessary. Our interest will be centered around the stabilization of solutions to an equilibrium state, with special emphasis on the calculation of the characteristic exponents, namely the decay rate and the expansion rate.
