## Abstract In this article, a one parameter family of discontinuous Galerkin finite volume element methods for approximating the solution of a class of second‐order linear elliptic problems is discussed. Optimal error estimates in __L__^2^ and broken __H__^1^‐ norms are derived. Numerical results

✦ Synopsis
The coupling of cell-centered finite volume method with primal discontinuous Galerkin method is introduced in this paper for elliptic problems. Convergence of the method with respect to the mesh size is proved. Numerical examples confirm the theoretical rates of convergence. Advantages of the coupled scheme are shown for problems with discontinuous coefficients or anisotropic diffusion matrix.

We propose a novel discontinuous mixed finite element formulation for the solution of second-order elliptic problems. Fully discontinuous piecewise polynomial finite element spaces are used for the trial and test functions. The discontinuous nature of the test functions at the element interfaces all
## Abstract A new finite element method is proposed and analysed for second order elliptic equations using discontinuous piecewise polynomials on a finite element partition consisting of general polygons. The new method is based on a stabilization of the well‐known primal hybrid formulation by usin
