On the convergence on nonrectangular grids (Q1375454)

The goal of the paper is to study the convergence properties of the full discrete approximations to the solution of a 1D convection-diffusion problem. A finite difference scheme is defined on a nonrectangular temporal-spatial grid and is of Lagrangian type -- Euler implicit on time and centered finite difference on space. A stability inequality is derived and by its help convergence of the fully discrete scheme is proved under some smoothness conditions imposed on the spatial-temporal grids.
