    Full text link
    The second edition of the book "Roos, Stynes, Tobiska -- Robust Numerical Methods for Singularly Perturbed Differential Equations" appeared many years ago and was for many years a reliable guide into the world of numerical methods for singularly perturbed problems. Since then many new results came into the game, we present some selected ones and the related sources.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1909.0827

    In this paper, we study the convergence and superconvergence properties of the discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method for a linear convection-diffusion problem in one-dimensional setting. We prove that the DG solution and its derivative exhibit optimal O(hp+1) and O(hp) convergence rates in the L 2 -norm, respectively, when p-degree piecewise polynomials with p ≥ 1 are used. We further prove that the p-degree DG solution and its derivative are O(h2p) superconvergent at the downwind and upwind points, respectively. Numerical experiments demonstrate that the theoretical rates are optimal and that the DG method does not produce any oscillation. We observed optimal rates of convergence and superconvergence even in the presence of boundary layers when Shishkin meshes are used
