Abstract

We consider the discretization of a class of nonlinear parabolic equations by discontinuous Galerkin time-stepping methods and establish a priori as well as conditional a posteriori error estimates. Our approach is motivated by the error analysis in [9] for Runge-Kutta methods for nonlinear parabolic equations; in analogy to [9], the proofs are based on maximal regularity properties of discontinuous Galerkin methods for non-autonomous linear parabolic equations.
