Convergence of a hp-streamline diffusion scheme for Vlasov-Fokker-Planck system
Author
Summary, in English
We analyze the hp-version of the streamline diffusion finite element method for the Vlasov–Fokker–Planck system. For this method we prove the stability estimates and derive sharp a priori error bounds in a stabilization parameter δ ~ min(h/p, h2/σ), with h denoting the mesh size of the finite element discretization in phase-space-time, p the spectral order of approximation, and σ the transport cross-section.
