Maximum principle preserving schemes for interface problems with discontinuous coefficients

From MaRDI portal





The authors consider the elliptic problem NEWLINE\[NEWLINE (\beta u_x)_{x}+(\beta u_y)_{y}- \kappa(x,y)u=f(x,y) NEWLINE\]NEWLINE in a domain \(\Omega\) that contains a smooth curve \(\Gamma\) across which \(\beta\) and \(f\) may have jump discontinuities. The standard 5-point finite difference scheme is set up but modified near \(\Gamma\) in such a way that a discrete maximum principle is valid while the resulting scheme exhibits overall first order acuracy. Based on these properties convergence is proved. The authors study also a second order scheme starting from the 9-point finite difference stencil. The needed properties are in this case verified numerically. Numerical examples illustrate the theoretical results.
