On Convergence of Block-Centered Finite Differences for Elliptic Problems 论文

摘要

We consider linear, selfadjoint, elliptic problems with Neumann boundary conditions in rectangular domains. We demonstrate that with sufficiently smooth data, the discrete $L^2 $-norm errors for tensor product block-centered finite differences in both the approximate solution and its first derivatives are second-order for all nonuniform grids. Extensions to nonselfadjoint and parabolic problems are discussed.
