Mixed time discontinuous space-time finite element method for convection diffusion equations (Q1030332)

The authors propose a mixed time discontinuous space-time finite element scheme for second-order convection diffusion problems. The order of the equation is lowered by the mixed finite element method. The low order equation is discretized with a space-time finite element method, continuous in space but discontinuous in time. The authors prove stability, existence, uniqueness and convergence of the approximate solutions. Numerical results are also provided.
