Abstract
A spectral Galerkin method in the spatial discretization is analyzed to solve the Cahn‐Hilliard equation. Existence, uniqueness, and stabilities for both the exact solution and the approximate solution are given. Using the theory and technique of a priori estimate for the partial differential equation, we obtained the convergence of the spectral Galerkin method and the error estimate between the approximate solution u~N~(t) and the exact solution u(t). © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract We consider a solution of the Cahn–Hilliard equation or an associated Caginalp problem with dynamic boundary condition in the case of a general potential and prove that under some conditions on the potential it converges, as __t__ → ∞, to a stationary solution. The main tool will be the
