We show that the DDR method can be interpreted as defining a computable consistent discrete $\mathrm{L}^2$ product on a conforming FES defined by PDEs. Without modifying the numerical method itself, this point of view provides an…

It is proved in Chon{\'e} and Le Meur (2001) that the problem of minimizing a Dirichlet-like functional of the function $u\_h$ discretized with $P\_1$ Finite Elements, under the constraint that $u\_h$ be convex, cannot converge. Here, we…
