Abstract

A local a priori and a posteriori analysis is developed for the Galerkin method with discontinuous finite elements for solving stationary diffusion problems. The main results are an optimalorder estimate for the point-wise error and a corresponding a posteriori error bound. The proofs are based on weighted L2-norm error estimates for discrete Green functions as already known for the ‘continuous’ finite element method.
