Discontinuous Galerkin approximation of linear parabolic problems with dynamic boundary conditions
In this paper we propose and analyze a Discontinuous Galerkin method for a
linear parabolic problem with dynamic boundary conditions. We present the
formulation and prove stability and optimal a priori error estimates for the
fully discrete scheme. More precisely, using polynomials of degree on
meshes with granularity along with a backward Euler time-stepping scheme
with time-step , we prove that the fully-discrete solution is bounded
by the data and it converges, in a suitable (mesh-dependent) energy norm, to
the exact solution with optimal order . The sharpness of the
theoretical estimates are verified through several numerical experiments
High order discontinuous Galerkin methods on surfaces
We derive and analyze high order discontinuous Galerkin methods for
second-order elliptic problems on implicitely defined surfaces in
. This is done by carefully adapting the unified discontinuous
Galerkin framework of Arnold et al. [2002] on a triangulated surface
approximating the smooth surface. We prove optimal error estimates in both a
(mesh dependent) energy norm and the norm.Comment: 23 pages, 2 figure
