Abstract: A simple and efficient interface-fitted mesh generation algorithm is developed in this paper. This algorithm can produce a local anisotropic fitting mixed mesh which consists of both triangles and quadrilaterals near the interface. A new finite element method is proposed for second order elliptic interface problems based on the resulting mesh. Optimal approximation capabilities on anisotropic elements are proved in both the

H^{1}

and

L^{2}

norms. The discrete system is usually ill-conditioned due to anisotropic and small elements near the interface. Thereupon, a multigrid method is presented to handle this issue. The convergence rate of the multigrid method is shown to be optimal with respect to both the coefficient jump ratio and mesh size. Numerical experiments are presented to demonstrate the theoretical results.
