Adaptive vertex-centered finite volume methods for general second-order linear elliptic PDEs

Numerical Analysis 2019-07-17 v1

Abstract

We prove optimal convergence rates for the discretization of a general second-order linear elliptic PDE with an adaptive vertex-centered finite volume scheme. While our prior work Erath and Praetorius [SIAM J. Numer. Anal., 54 (2016), pp. 2228--2255] was restricted to symmetric problems, the present analysis also covers non-symmetric problems and hence the important case of present convection.
