Abstract
In this paper we develop an abstract theory for stability and convergence of mixed discontinuous finite element methods for second-order partial differential problems. This theory is then applied to various examples, with an emphasis on different combinations of mixed finite element spaces. Elliptic, parabolic, and convection-dominated diffusion problems are considered. The examples include classical mixed finite element methods in the discontinuous setting, local discontinuous Galerkin methods, and their penalized (stablized) versions. For the convection-dominated diffusion problems, a characteristics-based approach is combined with the mixed discontinuous methods.
