Abstract

AbstractWe give a thorough quantitative error analysis for the effect of coefficient idealization on solutions of linear elliptic boundary value problems. The a posteriori error estimate is derived by a tactful application of the duality theory in convex analysis. The estimate involves an auxiliary function subject to certain constraint. We discuss in detail the selection of a good auxiliary function for various cases. Numerical examples show the effectiveness of our a posteriori error estimate.
