Abstract
In this paper, a discontinuous Galerkin least-squares finite element method is developed for singularly perturbed reaction-diffusion problems with discontinuous coefficients and boundary singularities by recasting the second-order elliptic equations as a system of first-order equations. In a companion paper (Lin in SIAM J Numer Anal 47:89–108, 2008) a similar method has been developed for problems with continuous data and shown to be well-posed, uniformly convergent, and optimal in convergence rate. In this paper the method is modified to take care of conditions that arise at interfaces and boundary singularities. Coercivity and uniform error estimates for the finite element approximation are established in an appropriately scaled norm. Numerical examples confirm the theoretical results.
