  • Abstract

This paper presents error estimates in both an energy norm and the $L^2$-norm for the weak Galerkin (WG) finite element methods for elliptic problems with low regularity solutions. The error analysis for the continuous Galerkin finite element remains same regardless of regularity. A totally different analysis is needed for discontinuous finite element methods if the elliptic regularity is lower than H-1.5. Numerical results confirm the theoretical analysis.
