  • Abstract
    The convergence of a wide class of approximation schemes to the viscosity solution of fully nonlinear second-order elliptic or parabolic, possibly degenerate, partial differential equations is studied. It is proved that any monotone, stable, and consistent scheme converges (to the correct solution), provided that there exists a comparison principle for the limiting equation. Several examples are given where the result applies
