Numerical methods for time stepping the Cahn-Hilliard equation are given and discussed. The methods are unconditionally gradient stable, and are uniquely solvable for all time steps. The schemes require the solution of ill-conditioned linear equations, and numerical methods to accurately solve these equations are also discussed.
