For Sobolev equation, we present a new numerical scheme based on a modified weak Galerkin finite element method, in which differential operators are approximated by weak forms through the usual integration by parts. In particular, the numerical method allows the use of discontinuous finite element f...

More Information
Summary:For Sobolev equation, we present a new numerical scheme based on a modified weak Galerkin finite element method, in which differential operators are approximated by weak forms through the usual integration by parts. In particular, the numerical method allows the use of discontinuous finite element functions and arbitrary shape of element. Optimal order error estimates in discrete H^1 and L^2 norms are established for the corresponding modified weak Galerkin finite element solutions. Finally, some numerical results are given to verify theoretical results.
