L2 stability analysis of the central discontinuous Galerkin method and a comparison between the central and regular discontinuous Galerkin methods
ESAIM: M2AN has started a new practice of occasionally selecting certain papers as "Highlight" papers. The papers so designated we believe will be of particular interest to our readership due to the topic or approach pursued or perhaps the reach and implications of the results. Highlight papers will be briefly introduced by an Editor and will be available (without charge, and indefinitely) on the ESAIM: M2AN electronic repository.
The present paper combines two methodologies: The discontinuous Galerkin method and the centered scheme method. The discontinuous Galerkin method has incorporated successful features of finite volume schemes for solving hyperbolic PDEs with shocked solutions. The centered scheme framework is a finite volume / finite difference methodology which avoids explicit Riemann solvers. The analysis provided in this paper indicates that there might be advantages over the traditional discontinuous Galerkin method and the potential to use the difference between the duplicative information over staggered meshes to control numerical dissipation and to possibly guide adaptivity.
