Analysis of the Schwarz algorithm for mixed finite elements methods
We prove that any elliptic operator of second order in variational form is the infinitesimal generator of an analytic semigroup in the functional space consinsting of all derivatives of hölder-continuous functions in where is a domain in not necessarily bounded. We characterize, moreover the domain of the operator and the interpolation spaces between this and the space . We prove also that the spaces can be considered as extrapolation spaces relative to suitable non-variational operators....
In this communication we focus on goal-oriented anisotropic adaption techniques. Starting point has been the derivation of suitable anisotropic interpolation error estimates for piecewise linear finite elements, on triangular grids in . Then we have merged these interpolation estimates with the dual-based a posteriori error analysis proposed by R. Rannacher and R. Becker. As examples of this general anisotropic a posteriori analysis, elliptic, advection-diffusion-reaction and the Stokes problems...
The paper is concerned with the finite element solution of the Poisson equation with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition in a three-dimensional domain. Anisotropic, graded meshes from a former paper are reused for dealing with the singular behaviour of the solution in the vicinity of the non-smooth parts of the boundary. The discretization error is analyzed for the piecewise linear approximation in the H1(Ω)- and L2(Ω)-norms by using a new quasi-interpolation operator. This new interpolant...
