An experimental survey of a posteriori Courant finite element error control for the Poisson equation (Q5959273)

On the model problem \[ \Delta u+ f=-\quad\text{in }\Omega[\quad u= 0\quad\text{on }\partial\Omega;\quad\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d, \] the authors survey some categories of a posteriori estimators for the Courant finite element method, discussing numerically and theoretically their reliability, computability and ranking. The paper also contains some new proofs. The references include 41 titles.
