We prove that, under natural assumptions, the solution of the backward Euler scheme applied to a gradient flow converges to an equilibrium, as time goes to infinity. Optimal convergence rates are also obtained. As in the continuous case, the proof relies on the well known Lojasiewicz inequality. We extend these results to the $\theta$-scheme with $\theta\in [1/2, 1]$, and to the semilinear heat equation. Applications to semilinear parabolic equations, such as the Allen-Cahn or Cahn-Hilliard equation, are given
Keywords: stability, Lojasiewicz inequality, backward Euler scheme, convergence rates., $\theta$-scheme.
