Abstract: In this paper, we propose a $C^0$ interior penalty method for $m$th-Laplace equation on bounded Lipschitz polyhedral domain in $mathbb{R}^d$, where $m$ and $d$ can be any positive integers. The standard $H^1$-conforming piecewise $r$-th order polynomial space is used to approximate the exact solution $u$, where $r$ can be any integer greater than or equal to $m$. Unlike the interior penalty method in [T.~Gudi and M.~Neilan, {em An interior penalty method for a sixth-order elliptic equation}, IMA J. Numer. Anal., extbf{31(4)} (2011), pp. 1734--1753], we avoid computing $D^m$ of numerical solution on each element and high order normal derivatives of numerical solution along mesh interfaces. Therefore our method can be easily implemented. After proving discrete $H^m$-norm bounded by the natural energy semi-norm associated with our method, we manage to obtain stability and optimal convergence with respect to discrete $H^m$-norm. Numerical experiments validate our theoretical estimate.
