The monograph is devoted to the first-order partial differential equations with impulsive actions. Using differential inequalities and monotone iterative methods, a number of questions for initial value problems and periodic boundary value problems for impulsive partial differential equations (IPDE) and impulsive partial functional-differential equations (IPFDE) are studied. Also a broad class of difference schemes for such equations are introduced. The monograph consists of three parts. In Part A ``Impulsive differential Inequalities'' comparison results for impulsive differential inequalities are obtained. The questions of estimates of the solution for IPDE and for IPFDE, estimates of the difference between two solutions, uniqueness criterion and continuous dependence of the solutions on initial data and the right-hand sides are treated. Part B ``Monotone Iterative Methods for Impulsive Partial Differential Equations'' establishes a method of approximation of solutions of the IVP for IPDE and IPFDE by means of solutions of the associated linear problems and estimate the difference between exact and approximate solutions. Part C ``Numerical analysis for partial differential equations'' deals with difference methods for IVP of IPDE and IPFDE. Sufficient conditions are given for the convergence of a sequence of solutions of impulsive difference equation to a solution of the problem under consideration. The stability of finite difference equations generated be the original problems is investigated by the difference inequalities.
