A weakly over-penalized symmetric interior penalty method

Susanne C. Brenner, Luke Owens, and Li-Yeng Sung

Abstract

We introduce a new symmetric interior penalty method for symmetric positive definite second order elliptic boundary value problems, where the jumps across element boundaries are weakly over-penalized. Error estimates are derived in the energy norm and the $L_2$ norm for both conforming and nonconforming meshes. Numerical results illustrating the performance of the method are also presented.
