Novel numerical solutions of Master and Fokker-Planck equations are described and compared for equivalent discrete and continuous problems. The two methods involve the calculation of long-time-step propagator matrices, whose single application is equivalent to many iterations of a finite difference scheme. These two methods are applied to the nucleation and growth of vapor-deposited thin films whose atoms cluster together to form islands (Volmer-Weber growth).
