Abstract
In this article, we analyze convergence and supercloseness properties of a class of weak Galerkin (WG) finite element methods for solving second‐order elliptic problems. It is shown that the WG solution is superclose to the Lagrange interpolant using Lobatto points. This supercloseness behavior is obtained through some newly designed stabilization terms. A postprocessing technique using polynomial preserving recovery (PPR) is introduced for the WG approximation. Superconvergence analysis is performed for the PPR recovered gradient. Numerical examples are provided to illustrate our theoretical results.
