  Many applications involve partial differential equations which admits
nontrivial steady state solutions. The design of schemes which are able to
describe correctly these equilibrium states may be challenging for numerical
methods, in particular for high order ones. In this paper, inspired by
micro-macro decomposition methods for kinetic equations, we present a class of
schemes which are capable to preserve the steady state solution and achieve
high order accuracy for a class of time dependent partial differential
equations including nonlinear diffusion equations and kinetic equations.
Extension to systems of conservation laws with source terms are also discussed.
