The talk Polynomial-degree-robust a posteriori estimates in a unified setting, by Martin Vohralík (INRIA de Paris), will be held on Monday March 7, 2016 at 9:00 in room K6.
Abstract
We present equilibrated flux a posteriori error estimates in a unified setting for conforming, nonconforming, discontinuous Galerkin, and mixed finite element discretizations of the two-dimensional Poisson problem. Relying on the equilibration by mixed finite element solution of patchwise Neumann problems, the estimates are guaranteed, locally computable, locally efficient, and robust with respect to polynomial degree. Maximal local overestimation is guaranteed as well. Numerical experiments suggest asymptotic exactness for the incomplete interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin scheme. The lecture follows the work “Polynomial-degree-robust a posteriori estimates in a unified setting for conforming, nonconforming, discontinuous Galerkin, and mixed discretizations, SIAM J. Numer. Anal., 53 (2015), pp. 1058–1081”.
