Title
A Time-Stepping DPG Scheme for the Heat Equation.
Abstract
We introduce and analyze a discontinuous Petrov-Galerkin method with optimal test functions for the heat equation. The scheme is based on the backward Euler time stepping and uses an ultra-weak variational formulation at each time step. We prove the stability of the method for the field variables (the original unknown and its gradient weighted by the square root of the time step) and derive a Ca-type error estimate. For low-order approximation spaces this implies certain convergence orderswhen time steps are not too small in comparison with mesh sizes. Some numerical experiments are reported to support our theoretical results.
