On the conservation and convergence to weak solutions of global schemes

From MaRDI portal





The aim of the paper is to study some difference schemes for hyperbolic conservation laws, written in the one-dimensional case as \[ u_t+ f(u)_x= 0,\qquad u(x, 0)= u^0(x),\qquad -1\leq x\leq 1. \] The classical Lax-Wendroff theorem asserts that the function to which the difference solution converges is the weak solution of the conservative law. Unfortunately the conditions of this theorem exclude the so-called global schemes. The authors extend the Lax-Wendroff theorem to schemes of this category such as: Compact schemes, Legendre spectral collocation schemes and Chebyshev spectral collocation schemes. Multi-domain Legendre methods for interface boundary conditions are also discussed.
