Abstract
Parabolic partial differential equations are a large, important class of equations. Obviously, most of the one dimensional work that we have done introducing difference methods, convergence, stability etc. has been directed toward parabolic equations. Of course, most of this was done with the model heat equation, but the heat equation is an excellent model for the class of parabolic equations.
