More work is done to study the explicit, weak and strong implicit difference solution for the first boundary problem of quasilinear parabolic system: $$\begin{gathered} u_t = ( - 1)^{M + 1} A(x,t,u, \cdots ,u_x M - 1)u_x 2M + f(x,t,u, \cdots u_x 2M - 1), \hfill \\ (x,t) \in Q_T = \left| {0< x< l,0< t \leqslant T} \right|, \hfill \\ u_x ^k (0,t) = u_x ^k (l,t) = 0 (k = 0,1, \cdots ,M - 1),0< t \leqslant T, \hfill \\ u(x,0) = \varphi (x),0 \leqslant x \leqslant l, \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ whereu, ?, andf arem-dimensional vector valued functions, A is anm×m positively definite matrix, and $u_t = \frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial t}},u_x ^k = \frac{{\partial ^k u}}{{\partial x^k }}$ . For this problem, the convergence of iteration for the general difference schemes is proved.

This paper is primarily concerned with the large time behaviour of solutions of the initial boundary value problem $$\begin{gathered} u_t = \Delta \phi (u) - \varphi (x,u)in\Omega \times (0,\infty ) \hfill \\ - \frac{{\partial \phi (u)}}{{\partial \eta }} \in \beta (u)on\partial \Omega \times (0,\infty ) \hfill \\ u(x,0) = u_0 (x)in\Omega . \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ Problems of this sort arise in a number of areas of science; for instance, in models for gas or fluid flows in porous media and for the spread of certain biological populations.

GivenT>0,p ∈ (1, ∞),f andu ₀; findu ∈K, whereK is a closed convex subset of the Sobolev spaceW ₀ ^1,p (Ω), such that for anyv∈K $$\begin{gathered} \int\limits_\Omega {u_1 (\upsilon - u) dx + } \int\limits_\Omega {\left| {\nabla u} \right|^{p - 2} } \nabla u \cdot \nabla (\upsilon - u) dx \geqslant \int\limits_\Omega {f(\upsilon - u) dx for} a.e. t \in (0,T], \hfill \\ u = 0 on \partial \Omega \times (0,T] and u(0,x) = u_0 (x) for x \in \Omega . \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ We prove error bounds in energy type norms for the fully discrete approximation using the backward Euler time discretisation. In some notable cases, these error bounds converge at the optimal rate with respect to the space discretisation, provided the solutionu is sufficiently regular.
