This article is concerned with the stability analysis of the analytic and numerical solutions of a partial differential equation with piecewise constant arguments of mixed type. First, by means of the similar technique in Wiener and Debnath [Int J Math Math Sci 15 (1992), 781–788], the sufficient conditions under which the analytic solutions asymptotically stable are obtained. Then, the θ‐methods are used to solve the above‐mentioned equation, the sufficient conditions for the asymptotic stability of numerical methods are derived. Finally, some numerical experiments are given to demonstrate the conclusions.Copyright © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq 30: 1‐16, 2014
