The authors prove a nonlinear variation of constants formula for a class of semilinear parabolic equations, and use this formula to study the stability of nonlinear perturbations of such equations. They give examples in which the theorems proved determine the stability of a perturbation of a nonuniformly stable equation, and where the application of converse Lyapunov theorems is not possible.
