Constructing Order Two Superconvergent WG Finite Elements on Rectangular Meshes

In this paper, we introduce a stabilizer free weak Galerkin (SFWG) finite element method for second order elliptic problems on rectangular meshes. With a special weak Gradient space, an order two superconvergence for the SFWG finite element solution is obtained, in both $L^2$ and $H^1$ norms. A local post-process lifts such a $P_k$ weak Galerkin solution to an optimal order $P_{k+2}$ solution. The numerical results confirm the theory.     

A weak Galerkin method for second order elliptic problems with polynomial reduction

The second order elliptic equation, which is also know as the diffusion-convection equation, is of great interest in many branches of physics and industry. In this paper, we use the weak Galerkin finite element method to study the general second order elliptic equation. A weak Galerkin finite element method is proposed and analyzed. This scheme features piecewise polynomials of degree $k\geq 1$ on each element and piecewise polynomials of degree $k-1\geq 0$ on each edge or face of the element. Error estimates of optimal order of convergence rate are established in both discrete $H^1$ and standard $L^2$ norm. The paper also presents some numerical experiments to verify the efficiency of the method.

Numerical and theoretical study of weak Galerkin finite element solutions of Turing patterns in reaction–diffusion systems

In this paper, we introduce numerical schemes and their analysis based on weak Galerkin finite element framework for solving 2‐D reaction–diffusion systems. Weak Galerkin finite element method (WGFEM) for partial differential equations relies on the concept of weak functions and weak gradients, in which differential operators are approximated by weak forms through the Green's theorem. This method allows the use of totally discontinuous functions in the approximation space. In the current work, the WGFEM solves reaction–diffusion systems to find unknown concentrations (u, v) in element interiors and boundaries in the weak Galerkin finite element space WG(P₀, P₀, RT₀) . The WGFEM is used to approximate the spatial variables and the time discretization is made by the backward Euler method. For reaction–diffusion systems, stability analysis and error bounds for semi‐discrete and fully discrete schemes are proved. Accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method successfully tested on several numerical examples and obtained results satisfy the well‐known result that for small values of diffusion coefficient, the steady state solution converges to equilibrium point. Acquired numerical results asserted the efficiency of the proposed scheme.     

Weak Galerkin finite element method for valuation of American options

We introduce a weak Galerkin finite element method for the valuation of American options governed by the Black-Scholes equation. In order to implement, we need to solve the optimal exercise boundary and then introduce an artificial boundary to make the computational domain bounded. For the optimal exercise boundary, which satisfies a nonlinear Volterra integral equation, it is resolved by a higher-order collocation method based on graded meshes. With the computed optimal exercise boundary, the front-fixing technique is employed to transform the free boundary problem to a one- dimensional parabolic problem in a half infinite area. For the other spatial domain boundary, a perfectly matched layer is used to truncate the unbounded domain and carry out the computation. Finally, the resulting initial-boundary value problems are solved by weak Galerkin finite element method, and numerical examples are provided to illustrate the efficiency of the method.

Weak Galerkin finite element method is introduced for solving wave equation with interface on weak Galerkin finite element space $(\mathcal{P}_k(K), \mathcal{P}_{k−1}(∂K), [\mathcal{P}_{k−1}(K)]^2).$ Optimal order a priori error estimates for both space-discrete scheme and implicit fully discrete scheme are derived in $L^∞(L^2)$ norm. This method uses totally discontinuous functions in approximation space and allows the usage of finite element partitions consisting of general polygonal meshes. Finite element algorithm presented here can contribute to a variety of hyperbolic problems where physical domain consists of heterogeneous media.

Semi-Discrete and Fully Discrete Weak Galerkin Finite Element Methods for a Quasistatic Maxwell Viscoelastic Model

This paper considers weak Galerkin finite element approximations on polygonal/polyhedral meshes for a quasistatic Maxwell viscoelastic model. The spatial discretization uses piecewise polynomials of degree $k (k ≥ 1)$ for the stress approximation, degree $k+1$ for the velocity approximation, and degree $k$ for the numerical trace of velocity on the inter-element boundaries. The temporal discretization in the fully discrete method adopts a backward Euler difference scheme. We show the existence and uniqueness of the semi-discrete and fully discrete solutions, and derive optimal a priori error estimates. Numerical examples are provided to support the theoretical analysis.

A weak Galerkin mixed finite element method for the Helmholtz equation with large wave numbers

In this article, a new weak Galerkin mixed finite element method is introduced and analyzed for the Helmholtz equation with large wave numbers. The stability and well‐posedness of the method are established for any wave number k without mesh size constraint. Allowing the use of discontinuous approximating functions makes weak Galerkin mixed method highly flexible in term of little restrictions on approximations and meshes. In the weak Galerkin mixed finite element formulation, approximation functions can be piecewise polynomials with different degrees on different elements and meshes can consist elements with different shapes. Suboptimal order error estimates in both discrete H¹ and L² norms are established for the weak Galerkin mixed finite element solutions. Numerical examples are tested to support the theory.

A weak Galerkin finite element method for a coupled Stokes‐Darcy problem

In this article, we introduce and analyze a weak Galerkin finite element method for numerically solving the coupling of fluid flow with porous media flow. Flows are governed by the Stokes equations in primal velocity‐pressure formulation and Darcy equation in the second order primary formulation, respectively, and the corresponding transmission conditions are given by mass conservation, balance of normal forces, and the Beavers‐Joseph‐Saffman law. By using the weak Galerkin approach, we consider the two‐dimensional problem with the piecewise constant elements for approximations of the velocity, pressure, and hydraulic head. Stability and optimal error estimates are obtained. Finally, we provide several numerical results illustrating the good performance of the proposed scheme and confirming the optimal order of convergence provided by the weak Galerkin approximation. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Weak Galerkin finite element methods for the biharmonic equation on polytopal meshes

A new weak Galerkin (WG) finite element method is introduced and analyzed in this article for the biharmonic equation in its primary form. This method is highly robust and flexible in the element construction by using discontinuous piecewise polynomials on general finite element partitions consisting of polygons or polyhedra of arbitrary shape. The resulting WG finite element formulation is symmetric, positive definite, and parameter‐free. Optimal order error estimates in a discrete H² norm is established for the corresponding WG finite element solutions. Error estimates in the usual L² norm are also derived, yielding a suboptimal order of convergence for the lowest order element and an optimal order of convergence for all high order of elements. Numerical results are presented to confirm the theory of convergence under suitable regularity assumptions. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The convergence order is$\mathcal{O}$($k$|ln $k$|+$h^r$), where $k$ is the temporal grid size and $h$ is spatial grid size in the $x$ and $y$ directions, respectively. Numerical results are presented to support our theoretical analysis.
