Abstract
In this paper we discusss a simple finite difference method for the discretization of elliptic boundary value problems on composite grids. For the model problem of the Poisson equation we prove stability of the discrete operator and bounds for the global discretization error. These bounds clearly show how the discretization error depends on the grid size of the coarse grid, on the grid size of the local fine grid and on the order of the interpolation used on the interface. Furthermore, the constants in these bounds do not depend on the quotient of coarse grid size and fine grid size. We also discuss an efficient solution method for the resulting composite grid algebraic problem.
