✦ Synopsis


A centered difference or finite element discretization is applied to a singularly perturbed, one-dimensional boundary value problem. The discretization uses a piecewise equidistant mesh. It is proved that the pointwise error is (almost) of second order with respect to the number of nodes, uniformly in the perturbation parameter. The proof is based on a monotonicity argument.

A Galerkin finite element method that uses piecewise bilinears on a simple piecewise equidistant mesh is applied to a linear convection-dominated convection-diffusion problem in two dimensions.

We consider an upwind ÿnite di erence scheme on a novel layer-adapted mesh (a modiÿcation of Shishkin's piecewise uniform mesh) for a model singularly perturbed convection-di usion problem in two dimensions.

The continuous interior penalty (CIP) method for elliptic convection-diffusion problems with characteristic layers on a Shishkin mesh is analysed. The method penalises jumps of the normal derivative across interior edges. We show that it is of the same order of convergence as the streamline diffusio
