Abstract
A number of new layer methods for solving semilinear parabolic equations and reaction-diffusion systems is derived by using probabilistic representations of their solutions. These methods exploit the ideas of weak sense numerical integration of stochastic differential equations. In spite of the probabilistic nature these methods are nevertheless deterministic. A convergence theorem is proved. Some numerical tests are presented.
