The author considers the abstract parabolic equation ${dy\over dt}= Ay+ g(y,t,\omega t)+ \omega^\alpha\varphi(y, t,\omega\cdot t),\tag{1}$ where $$A$$ is a linear operator (generally speaking, unbounded), the nonlinear vector-valued functions $$g(y,t,\tau)$$ and $$\varphi(y,t,\tau)$$ have mean values with respect to $$\tau$$, the mean value of $$\varphi$$ is equal to zero, and $$\alpha$$ is a positive number. Here the author considers the case $$\alpha={1\over 2}$$, which is called the first bifurcation exponent. Under some suitable assumptions on the data of (1), the author establishes that the solutions of (1) are asymptotically close to the corresponding solutions of the averaged problems. Moreover, the author studies the Lyapunov stability and instability of solutions of (1).
