Convergence to equilibrium for a second-order time semi-discretization ofthe Cahn-Hilliard equation

We consider a second-order two-step time semi-discretization of the Cahn-Hilliard equation with an analytic nonlinearity. The time-step is chosen small enough so that the pseudo-energy associated withdiscretization is nonincreasing at every time iteration. We prove that the sequence generated by the...
