A note on the design of hp-version interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin finite element methods for degenerate problems

We consider a variant of the hp-version interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin finite element method (IP-DGFEM) for second order problems of degenerate type. We do not assume uniform ellipticity of the diffusion tensor. Moreover, diffusion tensors or arbitrary form are covered in the theory present...

description We consider a variant of the hp-version interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin finite element method (IP-DGFEM) for second order problems of degenerate type. We do not assume uniform ellipticity of the diffusion tensor. Moreover, diffusion tensors or arbitrary form are covered in the theory presented. A new, refined recipe for the choice of the discontinuity-penalisation parameter (that is present in the formlation of the IP-DGFEM) is given. Making use of the recently introduced augmented Sobolev space framework, we prove an hp-optimal error bound in the energy norm and an h-optimal and slightly p-suboptimal (by only half an order of p) bound in the L2 norm, provided that the solution belongs to an augmented Sobolev space.
