[For the entire collection see Zbl 0722.00015.] This is a review of recent results on the numerical approximation of the solution of the two-phase Stefan problem formulated as follows: find an \(u=u(x,t)\) such that \(u_ t-\Delta \beta(u)=0\) in \(\Omega\times (0,T)\), \(\beta(u)=g\) on \(\Gamma\times (0,T)\), \(u(.,0)=u_ 0\). Here \(\Omega\subset R^ d\) is a bounded domain with boundary \(\Gamma\), \(\beta\) is a non decreasing Lipschitz continuous function, \(\beta(0)=0\) and \(\Delta\) is the Laplace operator in \(x\). The author presents various linear and nonlinear approximate schemes discretizing the problem by means of finite differences with respect to time and by finite element methods in the space variable. Error estimates and references to the literature are given. Some open questions are formulated.
