B. Riviere et al., Improved energy estimates for interior penalty, constrained and discontinuous Galerkin methods for elliptic problems. Part I, COMPUTAT GE, 3(3-4), 1999, pp. 337-360
Three Galerkin methods using discontinuous approximation spaces are introdu
ced to solve elliptic problems. The underlying bilinear form for all three
methods is the same and is nonsymmetric. In one case, a penalty is added to
the form and in another, a constraint on jumps on each face of the triangu
lation. All three methods are locally conservative and the third one is not
restricted. Optimal a priori hp error estimates are derived for all three
procedures.
