Mixed approximation of eigenvalue problems: A superconvergence result
We state a superconvergence result for the lowest order Raviart-Thomas approximation of eigenvalue problems. It is known that a similar superconvergence result holds for the mixed approximation of Laplace problem; here we introduce a new proof, since the one given for the source problem cannot be generalized in a straightforward way to the eigenvalue problem. Numerical experiments confirm the superconvergence property and suggest that it also holds for the lowest order Brezzi-Douglas-Marini...
Stabilized Stokes Elements and Local Mass Conservation
In this paper we discuss lowest order stabilizations of Stokes finite elements. We study the behavior of the constants in front of the error estimates in terms of the stabilization parameters and confirm with numerical tests that the bounds are sharp. Moreover, we investigate the local mass conservation properties of the considered schemes and analyze new schemes with enhanced pressure approximation, which guarantee a better local discretization of the divergence free constraint.
The virtual element method for eigenvalue problems with potential terms on polytopic meshes
We extend the conforming virtual element method (VEM) to the numerical resolution of eigenvalue problems with potential terms on a polytopic mesh. An important application is that of the Schrödinger equation with a pseudopotential term. This model is a fundamental element in the numerical resolution of more complex problems from the Density Functional Theory. The VEM is based on the construction of the discrete bilinear forms of the variational formulation through certain polynomial projection operators...
