This paper deals with the numerical approximation of mild solutions of elliptic-parabolic equations, relying on the existence results of Bénilan and Wittbold (1996). We introduce a new and simple algorithm based on Halpern's iteration for nonexpansive operators (Bauschke, 1996; Halpern, 1967; Lions, 1977), which is shown to be convergent in the degenerate case, and compare it with existing schemes (Jäger and Kačur, 1995; Kačur, 1999).
