Abstract

We propose and analyze an hp-adaptive DG-FEM algorithm, termed hp-ADFEM, and its one-dimensional realization, which is convergent, instance optimal, and h- and p-robust. The procedure consists of iterating two routines:one hinges on Binev's algorithm for the adaptive hp-approximation of a given function, and finds a near-best hp-approximation of the current discrete solution and data to a desired accuracy; the other one improves the discrete solution to a finer but comparable accuracy, by iteratively applying Dörfler marking and h refinement.
