Abstract

This paper proposes a weak Galerkin (WG) finite element method for elliptic interface problems defined on nonconvex polygonal partitions. The method features a built-in stabilizer and retains a simple, symmetric, and positive definite formulation. An optimal-order error estimate is rigorously derived in the discrete H1H^1 norm. Furthermore, a series of numerical experiments are provided to verify the theoretical results and to demonstrate the robustness and effectiveness of the proposed WG method for elliptic interface problems.
