Superconvergence analysis of spectral volume methods for one-dimensional diffusion and third-order wave equations

Xu Yin, Waixiang Cao, Zhimin Zhang (2024)

Applications of Mathematics

We present a unified approach to studying the superconvergence property of the spectral volume (SV) method for high-order time-dependent partial differential equations using the local discontinuous Galerkin formulation. We choose the diffusion and third-order wave equations as our models to illustrate approach and the main idea. The SV scheme is designed with control volumes constructed using the Gauss points or Radau points in subintervals of the underlying meshes, which leads to two SV schemes...

Superconvergence by Steklov averaging in the finite element method

Karel Kolman (2005)

Applicationes Mathematicae

The Steklov postprocessing operator for the linear finite element method is studied. Superconvergence of order 𝓞(h²) is proved for a class of second order differential equations with zero Dirichlet boundary conditions for arbitrary space dimensions. Relations to other postprocessing and averaging schemes are discussed.

Superconvergence estimates of finite element methods for American options

Qun Lin, Tang Liu, Shu Hua Zhang (2009)

Applications of Mathematics

In this paper we are concerned with finite element approximations to the evaluation of American options. First, following W. Allegretto etc., SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 39 (2001), 834–857, we introduce a novel practical approach to the discussed problem, which involves the exact reformulation of the original problem and the implementation of the numerical solution over a very small region so that this algorithm is very rapid and highly accurate. Secondly by means of a superapproximation and interpolation...

Superconvergence of a stabilized approximation for the Stokes eigenvalue problem by projection method

Pengzhan Huang (2014)

Applications of Mathematics

This paper presents a superconvergence result based on projection method for stabilized finite element approximation of the Stokes eigenvalue problem. The projection method is a postprocessing procedure that constructs a new approximation by using the least squares method. The paper complements the work of Li et al. (2012), which establishes the superconvergence result of the Stokes equations by the stabilized finite element method. Moreover, numerical tests confirm the theoretical analysis.

Superconvergence of external approximation for two-point boundary problems

Teresa Regińska (1987)

Aplikace matematiky

The superconvergence property of a certain external method for solving two point boundary value problems is established. In the case when piecewise polynomial spaces are applied, it is proved that the convergence rate of the approximate solution at the knot points can exceed the global one.

Superconvergence of mixed finite element semi-discretizations of two time-dependent problems

Jan Brandts (1999)

Applications of Mathematics

We will show that some of the superconvergence properties for the mixed finite element method for elliptic problems are preserved in the mixed semi-discretizations for a diffusion equation and for a Maxwell equation in two space dimensions. With the help of mixed elliptic projection we will present estimates global and pointwise in time. The results for the Maxwell equations form an extension of existing results. For both problems, our results imply that post-processing and a posteriori error estimation...
