    Ergodicity properties of implicit and partially implicit discretization schemes for Langevin equations corresponding to a class of desired stationary distributions are established. It is shown that when used as a proposal for a Metropolis-Hastings scheme, the ergodicity properties are retained. A partially implicit scheme based on local linearization is also analyzed. Examples are provided. For ease of exposition, only the scalar case is considered.
