Abstract

Nonsmoothness of the boundary of polygonal domains limits the regularity of the solutions of elliptic problems. This leads to the presence of the so-called pollution effect in the finite element approximation, which results in a reduced convergence order of the scheme measured in the L 2 and L -norms, compared to the best-approximation order. We show that the energy-correction method, which is known to eliminate the pollution effect in the L 2-norm, yields the same convergence order of the finite element error as the best approximation also in the L -norm. We confirm the theoretical results with numerical experiments.
