[For the entire collection see Zbl 0722.00015.] The authors give a survey on results about the asymptotic behavior of nonlinear semigroups \(\{S_ t\}\) arising from evolution equations. In the first section they present a theorem for individual trajectories, which relies on the concept of \(\{S_ t\}\) being close to a linear semigroup in the neighborhood of a restpoint and that of a regular spectral radius. They assert the existence of an invariant manifold and a trajectory on that manifold, which the original trajectory approaches exponentially as \(t \to \infty\). In the second section they consider spectral asymptotics, which are uniform with respect to initial data in a compact set, whereas a parameter dependent case is addressed in the third section. Applications to the Navier-Stokes equations, reaction-diffusion equations and to an in the second time derivative singular (w.r.t. a small parameter) damped wave equation are indicated.
