Abstract
The local behavior of the lowest order boundary element method on quasi-uniform meshes for Symm's integral equation and the stabilized hyper-singular integral equation on polygonal/polyhedral Lipschitz domains is analyzed. We prove local a priori estimates in for Symm's integral equation and in for the hypersingular equation. The local rate of convergence is limited by the local regularity of the sought solution and the sum of the global regularity and additional regularity provided by the shift theorem for a dual problem.
