Abstract

In the a priori L2 error analysis of the finite element method (FEM), the Aubin-Nitsche trick is often used. Usually, the convergence order of the L2 error estimates by the Aubin-Nitsche trick is one order higher than the H0 1 error estimates. As is well known, the convergence order obtained by this technique depends on the shape of the domain because it is dependent on the regularity of solutions for the associated dual problem on the same domain. In this paper, we introduce a technique for getting the optimal order L2 error estimates on the L-shaped domain without Aubin-Nitsche trick. From the numerical evidence based on the guaranteed computations, we could still expect that such a domain dependency is not essential.
