Abstract
This is an expository paper showing the interplay between the analysis of numerical methods for evolutionary partial differential equations and some developments in the stiff ordinary differential equation literature. The notions of contractivity, one-sided Lipschitz conditions, logarithmic norms, B-convergence and order reduction are of particular importance.

A class of implicit Runge-Kutta methods is shown to possess a stability property which is a natural extension of the notion of A-stability for non-linear systems.

It is proved that, under certain conditions, the order in time of the fully discrete scheme equals the conventional order of the Runge-Kutta formula being used, which indicates that explicit discretizations are most appealing in this area.

Conditions for the parameters of a semi-implicit method imply that the method produces contractive numerical solutions over a large class of nonlinear problems for sufficiently smallh, but the restriction on the stepsize does not depend on the stiffness of the differential equation.

A rigorous stability analysis for a Buckley-Leverett problem shows that this claim that anm-stage method will increase the real stability boundary bym2 is false, and that previous stabilized IMPES schemes are never more efficient than ordinary IMPES.
